EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Count Otto von Bismarck, a prominent Prusso-German statesman during the late 19th century. Known for his influential role in unifying various German states under Prussian leadership, Bismarck's ambition was to create a single nation that would eventually become modern Germany. The catalyst for this significant achievement was the Franco-Prussian War of 1870, where other German states fought alongside the Prussians against France. The war resulted in France's defeat and paved the way for the establishment of the German Empire in 1871, with Bismarck as Chancellor. In this vibrant cartoon from Vanity Fair, London in 1870, we see Bismarck depicted wearing his military uniform and iconic boots. This caricature perfectly captures his powerful presence and political prowess. Bismarck's legacy as a skilled politician and strategist is evident through this portrait. His determination to unite Germany under one flag forever changed European history. As we admire this print by Otto von Bismarck himself, it serves as a reminder of an era when great leaders shaped nations and left an indelible mark on their people.
