Lithographie (61 x 86 cm) coloriée en aquarelle par l'artiste et signée, ex. 21/150, Editeur Leon Burghgraeve, Bruges, 1939. Cadre

Scarce at auction. This satirical map perfectly symbolizes the situation towards the end of 1939. Britain is shown depicted as a woman with battleships on leads; France as Marianne, leading her troops into battle; Germany, with a swastika sash, stabbing a female Poland; and Russia as a Cossack holding a hammer and sickle, his arm around a large brown bear.
