Munich, 1918: Bertolt Brecht published his anti-war ballade, "Legend of the Dead Soldier". With a sharp irony Brecht tells the story of the Kaiser who desperately needs soldiers on the front, and can’t accept the death of a young soldier who was already buried. The dead soldier is dug up, pronounced fit for active duty and, supported by two nurses and a chaplain, marches off to the front. On his grotesque journey all over the country, he gives an example to a cheering crowd that a German soldier is ready to die twice for his Kaiser. My drawing was inspired by famous drawing of George Grosz, from 1917, "Fit for Active Service".
