The Sun is Rising
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a thought-provoking cartoon print by Balkie, published in Lustige Blatter, Berlin, Germany in 1941. The artwork captures the aftermath of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and features Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the President of the United States at that time. In this political satire piece, FDR is depicted as a skeleton using a crutch to support himself while standing against a backdrop of an American naval base. The cartoon symbolizes America's resilience and determination during World War II. The rising sun behind FDR represents Japan's imperial ambitions and its role in initiating conflict with the United States. By portraying Roosevelt as a skeletal figure, Balkie suggests that despite being physically weakened by polio (which he had contracted earlier), FDR remains strong-willed and committed to leading his nation through these challenging times. Furthermore, the presence of Polynesian men in shadow signifies Japan's colonialist aspirations towards Polynesia and highlights their involvement in the Pacific theater during World War II. This visual juxtaposition between FDR and Polynesia emphasizes America's commitment to protecting its interests abroad. "The Sun is Rising" serves as both a commentary on international politics during that era and as an expression of democratic values upheld by Roosevelt and his Democratic Party. It reminds viewers of America's resilience against aggression while acknowledging the sacrifices made for peace and freedom during one of history's darkest chapters – World War II.
