EDITORS COMMENTS
The caption for the print of "Look, Look, Near the Vistula. The German Bellies are Swelling Up" would read as follows: This vibrant and satirical lithograph by Kazimir Malevich depicts a comical scene from World War I. In this artwork, Malevich uses humor to comment on the conflict between Russia and Germany during the war. The image shows a group of uniformed Russian soldiers pointing and laughing at their German counterparts whose bellies have mysteriously swelled up. Malevich's use of bold colors and exaggerated figures adds to the whimsical nature of the piece, while his mastery in capturing facial expressions enhances its comedic effect. The Cyrillic writing in the background further emphasizes its Russian origin. Through this cartoon-like portrayal, Malevich highlights not only the physical discomfort experienced by German soldiers but also mocks their perceived gluttony or overindulgence. This work serves as a reminder that even amidst times of war, artists can use their creativity to provide social commentary and offer moments of levity. Currently housed in Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its playful yet thought-provoking depiction of one aspect of World War I history.
