With its vivid colors and cartoon-like style, this print evokes laughter while providing a unique perspective on these famous personalities. The image reflects the cultural context of Germany during that time period as well. It subtly incorporates German references through symbols like flags or clothing details. This satirical drawing cleverly combines both English and German elements to create an amusing fusion.
