Phillipp Rupprecht, known as Fips, was born on September 4, 1900 in Nuremberg, Germany. In 1920, he left for Argentina, where he worked as a waiter and cowboy. He returned to Germany after a couple of years and worked as a cartoonist for the Fränkischen Tagespost, a Socialist newspaper. After drawing a cartoon of the Lord Mayor of Nuremberg, Hermann Luppe, Rupprecht came to the attention of Julius Streicher, a regional leader of the Nazi party. He hired Rupprecht to illustrate for Der Sturmer, the virulently anti-Semitic newspaper he published. Rupprecht worked under the pen name Fips and became a celebrated cartoonist/caricaturist best known for his variations on the antisemitic stereotype of the bearded, bulging eyed, large nosed Jew. He stayed at the paper until the last issue was published on February 22, 1945. In 1938, he illustrated the anti-Semitic children's book Der Giftpilz (The Poison Mushroom), published by the Sturmer publishing house. He joined the German Navy in 1939, but was released to create propaganda for the Nazi party. Rupprecht's career ended with the defeat of the Nazis in May 1945. The United States Army imprisoned him in the 7th Army Internee Camp #74 in Ludwigsburg, Germany. He was put on trial by Germany as part of the de-Nazification process in 1945 and sentenced to six years hard labor. Rupprecht was released from Eichst?tt prison on October 23, 1950. He married twice, had 4 children, and worked in Munich as a painter and decorator until his death on April 4, 1975, at age 74.Size (cm): 63 x 95.
