This satirical cartoon, created by the Soviet artistic trio Kukryniksy, depicts a skeletal figure, wearing a German military helmet and a life preserver labeled "Greetings from Tunisia," waving to a dejected Adolf Hitler and a priest. The cartoon's message criticizes Nazi Germany's military failures in the North African theatre during World War II, suggesting that defeat and death are inevitable. The work is a powerful example of political satire, using humor and caricature to convey a strong message about the realities of war and the consequences of aggression.
