EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "How to Close the Gap?" captures a powerful American cartoon from 1948 by D. R. Fitzpatrick, depicting the Russian attempt to drive Western powers out of Berlin during the Cold War. The cartoon cleverly personifies Russia as a bear, symbolizing its strength and aggression in post-war politics. In this thought-provoking image, we see a determined bear representing Russia standing tall with an iron curtain draped over it, signifying their efforts to isolate Berlin from Western influence. The artist highlights that while Russia is not engaging in outright war, they are employing various political acts such as blockades and other means to achieve their goal. The significance of this cartoon lies in its portrayal of the tense atmosphere prevailing at that time. It serves as a reminder of how fragile peace can be and how easily conflicts can escalate into full-blown wars. By using symbolism and satire, Fitzpatrick effectively conveys the gravity of the situation faced by Western powers during this period. This historical artwork invites us to reflect on the complexities of international relations and reminds us that even seemingly small actions can have far-reaching consequences. It stands as a testament to human resilience and determination in overcoming challenges posed by ideological differences between nations.
