EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Dropping the Pilot, 1890" captures a significant moment in German history. The artwork, created by renowned artist John Tenniel, depicts Otto von Bismarck, the influential Prussian/German statesman who had piloted the German Empire since its establishment in 1871, leaving the ship of state. This departure was a result of his disagreement with Emperor Wilhelm II's policies. In this black and white cartoon-style image published in Punch magazine on March 29th, 1890, we see Bismarck disembarking from the ship while being observed by Wilhelm II. The scene symbolizes Bismarck's resignation as Chancellor along with his son, who served as the German foreign minister. This engraving is not only an artistic representation but also a satirical commentary on politics and power dynamics during that era. It reflects how disagreements between political figures can lead to significant changes within a country. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this historical piece and emphasizes its connection to the nineteenth century. As viewers observe Bismarck taking steps away from power and authority, they are reminded of his pivotal role in shaping Germany's destiny. Overall, this print serves as a visual reminder of an important turning point in German history when one of its most prominent statesmen chose to step down due to ideological differences with the emperor.
