EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Prussian Appetite" takes us back to the 19th century, providing a glimpse into the political satire of that era. Created by Alfred Henri Darjou, this French cartoon from Charivari in 1864 is a part of a private collection. The artwork is featured in Karl Eugen Schmidt's book "Deutschland und die Deutschen in der Französischen Karikatur seit 1848" published by Emil Muller, Stuttgart in 1907. The image showcases Prussian ambition and hunger for power during this time period. Intriguingly detailed, the satirical drawing portrays Germany as an entity with insatiable appetite symbolized by its Prussian core. The artist cleverly uses caricature to depict Germany's expansionist desires and their impact on neighboring countries such as Denmark. This engraving not only serves as a historical document but also highlights the tensions between France and Germany during that period. It offers valuable insights into European politics and ambitions at the turn of the century. Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder has preserved this remarkable piece, allowing us to appreciate its artistic value while reflecting on Europe's complex history. This print transports us back to a time when political cartoons were powerful tools for social commentary and critical reflection on society's aspirations and actions.
