A nineteenth-century black and white caricature of Karl Marx, showing him bound to a printing machine and pecked by an imperial eagle. Crushed beneath the printing machine, six female figures, each representing a different German city (such as Trier, Dusseldorf, and Aachen), wail in despair. The eagle has its foot tied, the string leading to the upper-left corner, where it is held by a squirrel.
