EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print from Holt's Battlefields Collection captures the coloured portraits of two powerful figures of the early 20th century - Kaiser Wilhelm II and Emperor Franz Joseph. The image, dating back to 1914 during World War I, was an official card produced to raise funds for the Red Cross. Both Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany and Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria-Hungary were key players in the tumultuous events leading up to and during WWI. Their portraits on this postcard serve as a reminder of the political landscape at that time, where alliances were shifting and tensions were high. The use of colour in these portraits adds a sense of vibrancy and life to these historical figures, giving us a glimpse into their personalities and roles during wartime. It is fascinating to see how propaganda was used even in something as seemingly innocent as a fundraising postcard. During WWI, all sides utilized postcards like these to raise funds for various causes related to the war effort. This particular piece is not just a historical artifact but also a testament to the power of imagery in shaping public perception during times of conflict.
