Slide 18 - Diapositive
ANSWER
SOURCE B: In the front Hitler is sitting in his car. He looks unhappy. A roadsign points in the opposite direction. In the background we see a snowy landscape. Left: a German tank stuck in the snow and a frozen soldier. Right we see German soldiers walking (fleeing) away from Stalingrad.
With these elements the artist wants to make clear that the cartoon is about the German defeat at Stalingrad.
The ghost of Napoleon appears next to Hitler's car.
The artist compares Napoleon to Hitler. Both were conquerors and both suffered defeat in Russia. But to make matters worse for Hitler, Napoleon says to him: "At least I took Moscow first ( ..before I was defeated)". Hitler never managed to conquer Moscow.
Napoleon's war against Russia ended badly for him. The artist shows that Hitler will suffer the same fate.
