Offset lithograph

Belgrade, Serbia

Beranek

[1941]

approx. 18 5/8 x 27 3/4 in. 

 

Recalling the hoax of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, this antisemetic poster is dominated by the so-called "Eternal Jew" lording over balanced scales with vast riches on one side and Soviet Premier Jozef Stalin on the other. The Serbian caption reads: "Who will prevail? / No one! Because the Jew holds the balance... / Visit / Anti-Masonic Exhibition / So you will see for yourself." 

 

The poster was designed for and advertises Belgrade's "Grand Anti-Masonic Exhibition" that ran from 22 October 1941 until 19 January 1942 in Belgrade, in Nazi-occupied Serbia. The exhibition was financed by the Germans with the support of collaborationist leader Milan Nedić and organized by former members of the fascist Yugoslav National Movement (Zbor). 

 


The title of the exhibition sought to expose alleged Judeo-Masonic and Communist conspiracies for world domination. Artworks were virulently antisemitic,  dehumanizing Jews and seeking to justify their extermination. Included as part of the exhibition, over 60,000 copies of 20 different posters were also distributed to Serbians.
