Germans leaving France

Hansi laugh at Germans in 1918 with a caricature to celebrate the end of the 1st World War. We can see Germans leaving France symbolized by the crossing of the Rhine. At the bottom of the picture the indication "Passage du Rhin - 1918 - Retour au Pays Natal" which can be translated as "Crossing of the Rhine - 1918 - come to the homeland.". Hansi express about his happiness to be finally free. We can notice the colors in the background which refers to the colors of the morning and the dawn. This choice of color shows that Hansi imagine the departure of Germans as a new beginning for Alsace.
