Emancipation

Title:

Emancipation

Description:

Caricature on the subject of Jewish emanicipation. In German, the text reads : "Du machst mit deinen Geld hienieden. / Ganz nach Gefallen Krieg und Frieden. / Zum Dank sind diese grosse Orden. / Dir allgemach zutheil geworden. / Zwar darf ich das Kreuz nicht leiden. / Doch golden nehm' ich's an mit Freuden. / Wie Meyer, Hirsch und Löwe schon. / Gold bringt zum Ruhm und hohe Ehre. / Hoch stehe ich auf goldne Heere. / Und hoff' Emancipation." In English, the text reads : "You put your money beneath you. / All of it after the beneficial war and peace. / Thank God these are the largest orders. / The majority became a part of it. / Even though I am not allowed to suffer the cross. / Still, golden I'll take it on with friends. / Like Meyer, Hirsch, and Löwe already. / Gold brings glory and high honors. / I stand up high on golden armies. / And hope for emancipation." Published Leipzig: Luis Rocca.
