EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the tumultuous year of 1916 during the First World War, as we present this evocative promotional postcard for the theatrical production of "Kultur at Home" by Rudolf Besier and Sybil Spottiswoode. Produced at the Court Theatre on the 11th of March, this theatrical pantomime, or panto, was a popular form of entertainment that reflected the anti-German sentiment prevalent during the war. The image on this postcard showcases a striking contrast between Germany's claim to "Kultur" and its militarism. The German eagle, a symbol of power and pride, stands menacingly on a pile of books by General Bernhardi and the nationalist historian, Treitschke. The eagle's fierce gaze and outstretched wings convey a sense of dominance and aggression, while the books beneath it represent the intellectual and cultural achievements Germany once prided itself on. This poignant visual representation of the time reflects the widespread belief that Germany's militaristic tendencies were at odds with its cultural heritage. Allied propaganda during the war often played up this contrast, using it to fuel anti-German sentiment and rally support for the Allied cause. This postcard, with its powerful imagery and historical significance, is a fascinating glimpse into the theatrical and social landscape of the First World War era. Whether you're an avid history buff, a theatre enthusiast, or simply someone intrigued by the past, this postcard is a must-have addition to your collection.
