Karl Kaspar Fritz?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The subject of this colour print by the German painter Karl Kaspar Fritz is the occupation of the town of Zweibrücken

by the French armies. French soldiers, recognisable by their blue, white and red uniforms, have been portrayed as

oppressors as they seize a peasant’s cart (left), harass some young women (centre foreground) and force a peasant

down to his knees. The plaque being affixed to the Tree of Liberty carries a German inscription which in translation

reads: ‘Take freedom and equality from us, the model of humanity.’ This is a sarcastic reference to the claim of the

French as being liberators who opposed monarchy in the territories they entered.

keep leaning!!! all the best!!!:)
