EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "What England Wants!, pub. Berlin, 1918" by Egon Tschirch takes us back to a tumultuous era in history - the First World War. This color lithograph, part of a private collection, showcases the power of propaganda during wartime. In this striking image, we witness a scene filled with destruction and chaos. The foreground features an industrial factory engulfed in flames and billowing smoke, symbolizing the devastating impact of war on England's industries. The burning wreckage of airplanes further emphasizes the destructive nature of conflict. The poster's bold text reads "Was England Will!" or "What England Wants!", highlighting Germany's perception of English ambitions during the war. It serves as a reminder that propaganda played a crucial role in shaping public opinion and fueling nationalistic sentiments. Tschirch masterfully captures both fear and anguish through his composition. The devastated landscape evokes anxiety and angst while reflecting the harsh reality faced by those living in war zones at that time. This powerful artwork not only serves as historical documentation but also reminds us of the immense human cost associated with warfare. It prompts us to reflect on how nations use imagery and rhetoric to shape public sentiment during times of conflict. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking piece, we are transported back to 1918 Berlin, where tensions ran high and devastation was all too real.
