Caricature of The Kaiser. Location of events unknown. A carving of the Kaiser (Wilhelm II); made from wood; painted; w/ big moustache stuck on; fashioned so that his arms swing and his body moves on bolts; and the hands are attached to a pole; turning a grindstone - a wheel for sharpening a knife. A man (French?) is standing by this invention / artistic creation; and sharpens several of his knives. Guess this was his version of sentencing the Kaiser to hard labour. Comedy art.
