An original undated postcard
Item #8000
An original undated postcard ridiculing German "tourtes" most likely dating the first World War. Ranieri (1865-1929) was an Italian ceramist living in Paris and he often contributed to such magazines as La Baïonnette. Throughout the war years, his signature is often found on numerous caricatures distributed in the form of postcards used as support for anti-German propaganda. This particular example ridicules the German military for its effeminate ways, in the wake of the Eulenburg-Brand scandal some years before.
