Otto von Bismarck, the renowned Prusso-German statesman of the 19th century, left an indelible mark on history. From his famous quote "Dropping the Pilot" to his influential role in shaping Europe's political landscape, Bismarck was a force to be reckoned with. In John Tenniel's artwork titled "Dropping the Pilot, 1890, " we see Bismarck depicted as a pilot being dismissed from his duties. This image symbolizes how he skillfully navigated Germany through turbulent times but eventually faced opposition and had to step down. Another significant moment captured in history is shown in a sculpture from 1937 by Wide World Photos. The sculpture portrays Otto von Bismarck himself, standing tall and proud as a representation of his influential role as a Prussian statesman. Bismarck's strategic prowess is further highlighted in images such as "Napoleon III and Bismarck at the weaver's cottage in Donchery" (1870) and "Bismark Give Me the Pot" (late 19th century). These depict him engaging with key figures like Napoleon III during important negotiations that ultimately shaped European politics. His close relationship with military leader Moltke is showcased in an image titled "Bismarck and Moltke at Koniggratz" (1866), where they are seen discussing strategies during wartime. Their collaboration played a crucial role in securing victory for Germany. However, it wasn't just politics that defined Otto von Bismarck; he also had a softer side. In La Revue Illustree's cover illustration featuring Chancellor Bismarck and his dogs, we catch glimpses of his personal life outside of politics – perhaps hinting at hidden depths beneath his stern exterior. The surrender at Sedan Castle on September 2nd, 1870, marked a turning point in European history.
