Russia (to the Spirit of Revolution): "Throw down that torch and come and fight for me against the enemy of liberty." --The Spirit of Revolution runs through the destruction with a torch of Dissension after Russia's broken shield and sword during WW 1. -- The unsuccessful Kornilov speech, the worsening of the crisis and the strengthening of the Bolsheviks cause strong concern about the prospects for Russia and its participation in the First World War.I have other hard-to-find original Punch cartoon illustrations for sale; combine orders with no extra shipping fees.Punch, a magazine of humor and satire, ran from 1841-2002.
