Rethel's "Auch ein Todtentanz"

Sooooo... there's this 1849 comic book from Germany about how foolish the peasants are for trying to revolt and get the vote and democracy. To express just how wrongheaded these foolish peasants are, the artist, Alfred Rethel, depicts Death as the head of the revolution.

( The results are great, but they aren't supposed to be. Glancing anti-Semitism and ableism behind the cut. )
