I’ve seen this lithographic, “The Great Paralysis,” pop up in a couple of places on the web over the years.
It was created by A. Paul Weber (1893-1980), a German artist.
The lithograph is visually striking, but also contains elements commonly associated with antisemitism.
According to an auction site that has occasionally featured Weber’s work, the artist was both antisemitic and anti-Nazi.
I’d really like to find out more information about when this lithograph was created and for what purpose (many of Weber’s works were apparently used as illustrations).
