This satirical cartoon, created by the Soviet artistic trio Kukryniksy in 1941, depicts a caricature of Adolf Hitler being bombarded with bombs, symbolizing the Soviet Union's resistance against Nazi Germany during World War II. The exaggerated features and humorous portrayal of Hitler convey a strong sense of anti-fascist sentiment. The work, created during a crucial period of the war, reflects the powerful role of propaganda and artistic expression in shaping public opinion and bolstering morale.
