EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful Italian poster from 1919, in the aftermath of World War I. The image showcases a gripping propaganda message aimed at rallying support against Germany. The text boldly translates to "Attention! The German snake is caught! We must now tear out its fangs!". This striking lithograph, created by Samuil Samosud, conveys the urgency and determination felt by the Italian people during this tumultuous time. The visual elements of the poster are equally compelling. A hand representing Italy tightly grips an iron cross, symbolizing German aggression and dominance. With fingers wrapped around the snake's throat, it portrays Italy's intent to strangle Germany's power and influence. The snake itself represents Germany with its venomous tongue exposed, ready to strike. This thought-provoking artwork serves as a reminder of the intense emotions that permeated Europe after World War I. It reflects both the desire for justice and retribution against those deemed responsible for causing such devastation. Preserved through time on this print by Granger Art on Demand, this Italian poster continues to captivate viewers with its bold imagery and potent message. It stands as a testament to the power of art in shaping public opinion during times of conflict and upheaval.
