Germany's Liberation

This piece of Nazi propaganda is very effective because it conveys that their form of government will propel them forward to a better life. In this image, Germany is represented as an eagle, a ferocious bird of prey, which implies that the people of Germany are powerful and deserving of respect. The eagle is flying away from broken chains that held it captive, bringing to mind the post-World War I misery of the German nation. But seeing an unshackled Germany provides hope that people can be freed from their current situation. "But how?" one might ask. The eagle is flying from the dark, monochromatic, gloomy imprisonment behind it towards a bright, radiant sun, emblazoned with the hopeful swastika. The Nazi party here is pictured as the hope that Germany needs, but really, it's the hope the Germany wants, the motivation that compels it to break the bonds of current society. With wings nobly outstretched, flying boldly towards the Nazi horizon, it seems as though the Nazi party is really what the people should want. Finally, the caption, "Germany's Liberation" makes it clear that people are intended to believe that the Nazi party will solve all of their problems, and all people have to do is flock towards it.
