Vae Victis!, 1871.
Vae Victis!, 1871. The newly proclaimed Emperor of Germany, in the helmet of Victory, leads his troops into the French capital over the fallen body of Paris. His own crown contrasts with his horse treading on the crown of Paris. This relates to France's loss of the war against Prussia. The war began in July 1871, and on 1st March 1871, 30,000 German troops made a triumphal entry into their foe's capital. From Punch, or the London Charivari, March 11, 1871.
