The Anarchist, 1899 - A Captivating Glimpse into the Turbulent World of Nineteenth-Century Politics
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this thought-provoking print from 1899, titled "The Anarchist". JF Weber and Sascha Schneider skillfully capture the essence of anarchy and its impact on society during the late nineteenth century. The image portrays a naked male figure, his back turned towards us, holding a bomb in one hand while standing amidst a desolate landscape.
