EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and captivating colour lithograph that captures the spirit of German First World War propaganda. This powerful image, created by an unknown artist from the 20th century German School, showcases a scene of charging cavalrymen in the midst of warfare. The composition depicts young soldiers mounted on their majestic steeds, riding fearlessly into battle. The commanding officer can be seen passionately ordering his troops forward with outstretched arm and determined expression. The atmosphere is charged with energy as lances are raised high in unison, symbolizing unity and strength. This postcard-sized print served as a tool to rally support for Germany during the Great War. It aimed to evoke feelings of patriotism and courage among its viewers while glorifying the bravery and heroism displayed by these young men on horseback. The artwork not only highlights the military aspect but also portrays horse riding as a sport deeply ingrained in German culture at that time. It reflects how equestrian activities were intertwined with notions of masculinity and national identity. Through this compelling visual narrative, "Arise! Comrades, on your horses, on your horses!" transports us back to a pivotal moment in history when nations mobilized their forces for war. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals during World War I and invites contemplation about the impact of propaganda in shaping public opinion during times of conflict.
