Imaginative drawing by Marguerite Martyn and a photo of Bertha von Suttner, 1912, with a victorious Suttner holding a scroll labeled "International Peace Treaty / England / France / America." In the corner cowers a representation of a defeated warrior labelled "WAR." A broken sword and shield is on the ground. A tangle of broken warships is at the left side.
The front covers of Suttner's 1912 essay "Die Barbarisierung der Luft" and its English Translation, published in 2016 by The Bertha von Suttner Project.
