The subject is a book exposing the decadence of Berlin society, written by Lautrec's friend, Victor Joze. His ""poster focused the spectator's attention on the hindquarters of four horses, the largest of which was also being closely observed by a caricature of the Kaiser standing in a guardbox. The implications of this, along with the book's title, provoked a protest from the German ambassador to France and nearly caused an international incident... (Lautrec) refused to stop distribution of the poster, and as he had paid for it, the publisher was not able to stop the distribution himself. (Thereafter), according to art dealer Edmond Sagot, the value of Henry's work quadrupled."" (Julia Frey, p.398)
