EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bulgaria preparing to stab its neighbour, Serbia, fighting against Austria and Germany, in the back" depicts a powerful scene from World War I in 1915. Created by Louis Charles Bombled and now part of a private collection, this color lithograph showcases the complexities and betrayals that occurred during this tumultuous time. The image portrays Bulgaria as a deceitful neighbor, poised to stab Serbia in the back while they valiantly fight against formidable enemies such as Austria and Germany. The illustration originally appeared in Le Petit Journal on October 10th, 1915. The artist's intention is clear - to depict Bulgaria's cowardly act of taking advantage of their neighbor's heroic struggle for their own gain. This propaganda piece serves as an allegory for the larger conflicts within Europe during World War I. The composition is filled with symbolism and satire, highlighting the tensions between nations in the Balkans region. It also reflects historical events and military strategies employed during this period. Overall, this thought-provoking artwork captures both the brutality and complexity of war while shedding light on political alliances and betrayals that shaped history.
