"Zopf ab" : die chinesische Affaire im Lichte der europäischen Karikatur
A 1900 Berlin picture-book from Verlag von Dr. Eysler gathering European press caricatures of the Boxer Rebellion, with drawings by Lyonel Feininger, issued for German magazine-reading audiences during the campaign in China. Pen-and-ink cartoons run from loose sketch vignettes of carriages, cannon smoke and banner-carrying troops to heavy black-and-white allegories with silhouetted figures and cloud frames, giving designers stark ink masses, crowd friezes and caption-ready horizontal strips.
