Christendom after Twenty Centuries – By far the most famous artist and cartoonist created by the War was Louis Raemaekers. Being a citizen of Holland, he was nominally a neutral, though his mother was of German birth. His earlier war-cartoons contained criticism of England as well as of Germany; but intense sympathy for Belgium gradually made him an impassioned supporter of the Allies’ cause. Germany made every possible effort to suppress the Raemarkers cartoons, realizing with what mighty force they were blazoning her shame before the world.
