Summary edit

Description
English: The Blacksmith of German Unity (Der Schmied der deutschen Einheit), by Guido Schmidt (1834-1922), 1866. It combines stock elements that appeared in countless allegories celebrating Bismarck’s role in German unification – the German chancellor, for example, is dressed up in a blacksmith’s apron, and the figure of Germania is clad in armor. Like so many other images of its kind, the print captures the moment when the newly-forged sword of unity is passed, like a torch, from the one to the other.
