Acerca del libro
This work, created by a Brazilian artist Belmonte, contains a collection of cartoons that cover mainly the events of World War II. Belmonte became known through the political and social cartoons published in major newspapers and magazines between the 1920s and the 1940s.
Although unknown in a major part of the world (including Brazil), his works are among the most interesting and unique of its kind.
This book aims to rescue the memory of this great artist, prematurely deceased in 1947, at age 50, to portray the greatest scourge created by human race for their own use and also inspire illustration and history lovers. The cartoons are presented in chronological order and many of them are accompanied by photos of wartime, in an attempt to increase the visual and emotional impact.
"Men are like lambs. And this is what enables the armies and wars. They die from your docile stupidity." (Gabriel Chevalier. La Peur)
