This 1942 satirical cartoon, "Untitled," by the Soviet artistic trio Kukryniksy, depicts Adolf Hitler as a frail, defeated figure, seemingly unable to swallow the dates of various historical events. These dates refer to crucial moments during World War II, particularly the Battle of Moscow and the Nazi defeat. The image is a powerful commentary on Soviet propaganda during the war, portraying Hitler as a weak and defeated opponent, further fueling public morale. This cartoon, a classic example of Soviet political art, exemplifies the use of satire as a tool for propaganda.
