EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon print, titled "Proud Pj's of Brussels" from the year 1916, offers a unique and intriguing glimpse into the occupation of Brussels during World War I by the German army. The image, created by an unknown artist, masterfully captures the essence of the time, blending satire, history, and human emotion. The scene is set in the Belgian capital, Brussels, which was under German control from 1914 to 1918. In the foreground, a group of German officers, dressed in their military uniforms and adorned with decorative insignia, are depicted strutting proudly through the streets. Their confident posture and smug expressions convey their sense of triumph and superiority over the defeated Belgian people. However, the cartoon's title, "Proud Pj's of Brussels," hints at a deeper meaning. The term "Pj" is a reference to the German military police, or "Polizei," who were notorious for their brutality and oppression during the occupation. The cartoonist's use of the term "proud" is ironic, as the officers' behavior and actions were anything but admirable. The background of the print shows the devastation and destruction wrought by the war, with bombed-out buildings and ruined streets. The contrast between the officers' self-satisfied demeanor and the backdrop of destruction underscores the cruelty and injustice of the German occupation. This powerful and poignant cartoon serves as a reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of preserving historical records. It provides a valuable insight into a significant moment in world history and offers a thought-provoking commentary on the nature of power and pride.
