Question

what does the caricature of Otto von Bismarck in the German Reichstag depict?​

Answer 1

In the caricature of Otto von Bismarck, the Chancellor attempts to pull a rope joined to St. Peter's Basilica and proclaims to Satan that he expects to annihilate the papacy

Otto von Bismarck

• In a famous sketch of 1875, the French craftsman and essayist Felix Regamey ridiculed the strong Chancellor of Germany, Otto von Bismarck. In the animation, the Chancellor attempts to pull a rope joined to St. Peter's Basilica and proclaims to Satan that he expects to annihilate the papacy. Satan answers, "I have been attempting to do it for my entire life. Assuming that you oversee it, I will give you full stamps."
• Regamey's animation was a silly however gnawing articulation of Catholic disdain and outrage across Europe for one of the most failed remembered occasions of the nineteenth 100 years: the mistreatment and persecution of the Church because of the German government under Kaiser Wilhelm I and his "Iron Chancellor" Bismarck.
• For a time of almost 20 years, from 1871 to 1890, Catholics in the German Empire, particularly in the German territories of Prussia, Bavaria, Hesse, Baden, and involved Poland, confronted lawful handicaps, detainment, and exile, all for the sake of German public pride and solidarity.

Answer 2

Answer:

In Otto von Bismarck's parody, the chancellor tries to pull a rope attached to St. Peter's Basilica while telling Satan that he hopes to destroy the papacy.

Explanation:

• In a well-known cartoon from 1875, the French essayist and artisan Felix Regamey made fun of Germany's stern chancellor Otto von Bismarck. The Chancellor in the animation tries to yank a rope attached to St. Peter's Basilica while telling Satan that he hopes to destroy the pope. Satan responds, "I have spent my entire life trying to accomplish it. I'll give you full stamps if you watch it over."
• The treatment and persecution of the Church by the German government under Kaiser Wilhelm I and his "Iron Chancellor" Bismarck was one of the most poorly remembered events of the nineteenth century. Regamey's animation was a silly but gnawing expression of Catholic scorn and outrage throughout Europe.
• Catholics in the German Empire faced legal obstacles, detention, and exile for a period of nearly 20 years, from 1871 to 1890, especially in the German regions of Prussia, Bavaria, Hesse, Baden, and occupied Poland. This was done for the interest of German national pride and unity.
