Poster "Symbolic map of Europe - the Liberation War of 1914-1915"

Pro-Russian propaganda poster "Symbolic map of Europe - Wojna Oswobodzicielka 1914-1915". ("Symbolic Map of Europe - The Liberation War of 1914-1915"), published in Warsaw by Wladyslaw Lewinski. Shows the Russian tsar in the image of the liberator of Poland. Printing was authorized by Russian censors in April 1915. This is probably a revised edition of the map, which appeared in France under the name "Carte Symbolique de l'Europe". The main feature of this propaganda map is a play dominated by Tsar Nicholas II, who represents Russia. Poland is depicted as a woman begging the king for help. German bull fights with a French rooster. The collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is symbolized by the crown that lies between the crosses.
