“Das Vaterland in Gefahr”
(The country in danger)
The central figure in this design is Germania, an ancient symbol personifying the strength, unity and liberty of Germanic peoples. In this ominous pre-WWI depiction, she is surrounded by allegorical images of Germany’s preparations for the upcoming “Great War” in which more than nine million combatants and seven million civilians would lose their lives.
