EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "EUROPEAN COMMON MARKET. Viewing with concern" captures a significant moment in history, showcasing a thought-provoking cartoon comment on the growing prosperity of the European Common Market. The image depicts two prominent figures, Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev and East German head of state Walter Ulbricht, portrayed as representations of concern. The artist behind this powerful cartoon is Edmund Valtman, whose work often delved into political themes. Created on January 9th, 1962, during a time when tensions between Eastern and Western powers were high, this artwork reflects the unease surrounding the economic success of the European Common Market. Intriguingly, Ulbricht is depicted as a dog held by an unseen man on a leash. This symbolism suggests that he may be under control or influenced by external forces. Meanwhile, Khrushchev's expression reveals his apprehension towards Europe's economic integration. The composition highlights not only the political implications but also emphasizes how economics can shape international relations. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly positive developments can evoke concerns from those outside its sphere. Preserved through time by Granger Art on Demand from their collection dating back to 1962, this print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon historical events and consider their relevance in today's global landscape.
