EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and intriguing print captures a comical scene from early 20th century Germany. Titled "Infantry firing at a cavalryman from behind" this German humorous military postcard by Fritz Schonpflug showcases the artist's wit and creativity. In the image, we see an infantry soldier slyly shooting at a unsuspecting cavalryman from behind. The soldier wears a spiked helmet, known as pickelhaube, which was characteristic of the German army during that time period. The cavalryman, riding on his horse with great speed and agility, appears to be completely unaware of the impending danger. The artwork exudes humor through its clever depiction of cunning and deceitful tactics employed in warfare. It offers a lighthearted take on military life while showcasing Schonpflug's artistic talent. Beyond its comedic value, this postcard also provides insight into historical aspects of German culture and military practices during that era. It serves as a reminder of the significant role played by horses in combat units, particularly in cavalry regiments. Overall, this print is not only visually appealing but also offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both artistry and history intertwined within one frame.
