Niemals Wieder! (1930-32) Gelatin silver print. circa 1960. 37 x 26in. (95.2 x 68cm.) Framed. LITERATURE As "The Meaning of Geneva" version, see AIZ 11, Number 48, November 27, 1932, p. 1137 (cover); Kent, pp. 104-105 and John Heartfield, pp. 182-183. For the version offered here see: Leben und Werk, p. 235; John Heartfield, p. 255; and John Heartfield Photomontages, p. 21. NOTES The image of the dove of peace on a bayonet had been used originally for a photomontage titled "The Meaning of Geneva" reproduced in a 1932 issue of AIZ. Heartfield later revised it for a poster in 1960 as it is offered here. In 1967 a third version with additional text appeared. It read "Peoples, may your children/All be saved from war/Preventing war/Shall be your triumph." Wieland Herzfelde.
