Other information | According to the Library of Congress: "Seppla" [Josef Plank], Churchill as an octopus, between 1935 and 1943Both the war against Nazi Germany and efforts to stop the Holocaust were hampered by anti-Semitism. Axis propaganda sought to portray Churchill, who was sympathetic to Zionist aims and had many Jewish friends, as part of a supposed Jewish conspiracy. Here, he is shown as an octopus fastening his tentacles on the globe. "Object Details:Drawing. Prints and Photographs Division, Library of Congress (213)LC-USZ62-54514" [2] |
