Historical context: In 1912, as the Balkan Wars threatened to drag Europe into a general war, the Hungarian Social Democratic Party called the workers of Budapest to a protest march and mass meeting at the Tattersall. Mihály Bíró's poster shows Death in an officer's uniform, sabre in hand, striding over a field of the fallen beside a cannon. The text reads: "Against the horrors of war … every worker must protest against the mass slaughter!" Two years later the First World War began.
