Summary[edit]

Description
English: Illustration by Arthur Szyk (1894-1951), low resolution image file copied from the online collections of Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. (Prints & photographs online catalog):
  • Title: Europe is getting hot! We've got to move to the western hemisphere
  • Creator: Szyk, Arthur, 1894-1951, artist
  • Date created / published: 1944.
  • Medium: 1 drawing on paper : ink and graphite.
  • Summary: Cartoon shows Nazi leader Adolf Hitler sitting at the head of a table looking at a map of Nazi penetration into South America. The Spanish fascist leader, Franco, sits to the right of Hitler, gesturing to Argentina on the map, where a Nazi flag has been placed. He wears a uniform decorated with swastikas, and is unshaven and unkempt. An open bag rests on the floor beside him, "Monkey business for South America." Hitler and three German officers sitting across the table from Franco look at the Spanish leader rather than at the map. A map of the United States hangs on the wall behind the table. A plan for "softening up operations against the U.S.A." is described below the map. It includes anti-Jewish propaganda, anti-African-American propaganda, anti-Soviet propaganda, labor troubles and sabotage. Sealed orders and plans for espionage in Latin America rest on the floor between Hitler and Franco. In addition, a microphone on a stand raises mechanical hands. It is labeled "D.N.B." The Deutsches Nachrictenburo, the official press agency of the Third Reich was founded in 1933.
  • Notes: Caption label from exhibit Arthur Szyk, Artist for Freedom: Cartoons and Caricatures. Szyk portrays the Axis plot to dominate the world. Hitler sits at the head of the table (left), flanked by Joseph Goebels and Hermann Goering on his left, Spanish dictator Francisco Franco to his right, and Heinrich Himmler across. Title inscribed lower right. Inscribed upper right: To the cheerful idiots.


This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1951, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
