EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and thought-provoking cartoon print captures a pivotal moment in history during World War I. Titled "Important Surrender of Copyright," the image depicts Queen Mary I of England, also known as Bloody Mary, handing over her title to Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany. The symbolism is striking, as it suggests that the Kaiser now holds more blood on his hands than even the notoriously ruthless Queen Mary.
The details in the cartoon are rich with historical significance - from the depiction of Queen Mary in her Tudor attire to Kaiser Wilhelm II in his hussars uniform. The skull on the table and map of Belgium further emphasize the grim reality of wartime death and destruction.
As we reflect on this satirical comparison between two figures from different eras, we are reminded of the horrors and consequences of war. The artist skillfully conveys a message about power, responsibility, and accountability through this clever piece.
In September 1914, when this cartoon was created, the world was embroiled in what would become known as the Great War. This print serves as a poignant reminder of that turbulent time in history and challenges us to consider how we remember those who have shaped our past.
