A German farmer welcomes the Peace Tsar, Nicholas II of Russia to the home he shares with Germania and their son who bears toy weapons. The Tsar is backed by France and Great Britain, joined by Serbia and Montenegro. King Nicholas of Montenegro has his pistol at the ready, while King Peter hides behind the Tsar and conceals a smoking bomb. While the other figures are caricatures, the faces of these two kings are accurately rendered. Britain's ships are in the background. Despite the agreement of the Entente Allies to not seek a separate peace, some in Russia supported a peace agreement as early at November, 1914. Text: Der Friedenszar! 'Lieber Michel: Mein Ehrenwort.
