This satirical cartoon by the Soviet artist collective Kukryniksy depicts Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini as monkeys on a tightrope, a metaphor for the precariousness of their political alliance. Created during World War II, the image reflects the Soviet perspective on the Axis powers, highlighting their perceived weakness and instability. The caricatured figures, with their exaggerated features, emphasize the artists' critical stance towards the dictators and their regime. This work exemplifies the use of political satire in art to convey social and political commentary.
