This is "Der Tag"'

Description

Belfast Telegraph 1915 - Sketch reproduced from the Montreal Star. The image depicts a nursemaid with a pitchfork symbolising Britannia addressing Admiral von Tirpitz who cowers under a bed. The caption reads: 'Britannia - This is "Der Tag". Come out and see what I've got for you.' 'Admiral von Tirpitz - No, Brit, I won't. You may taunt me if you like. You may call me a coward if you will, but you will never make me give up my independence. I will be master in my own house, and master of the seas'.
