EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative German propaganda postcard, titled 'Our Kaiser,' dates back to the tumultuous period of the First World War, between 1914 and 1918. The image captures Kaiser Wilhelm II, the German Emperor and King of Prussia, in full military regalia. He is depicted wearing a uniform complete with a helmet adorned with a distinctive spike, a heavy cloak, a fur collar, and an abundance of braid and iron crosses. The Kaiser stands tall and confident, exuding an air of authority and determination. Behind him, a flag flies proudly in the wind, adding to the sense of patriotism and national pride. The backdrop of the image is a battlefield, with the chaos and destruction of war evident in the distance. The Kaiser's unwavering gaze and strong posture are intended to inspire loyalty and courage in the German people, as they faced the challenges of the First World War. Propaganda postcards like this one played a significant role in shaping public opinion during the conflict. They were used to promote national unity and morale, as well as to vilify enemy forces and justify military actions. This particular postcard serves as a powerful reminder of the emotional and psychological impact of war, and the role that propaganda played in shaping the historical narrative of the First World War.
