    David Low's 1936 political cartoon depicts Hitler steadily advancing towards greater power and territory in Europe as British and French leaders hesitate. The cartoon shows Hitler climbing a set of "Stepping Stones" labeled with his aggressive actions, while the figures of British Prime Minister Baldwin and Foreign Secretary Eden stand by with questioning expressions. Low criticizes the appeasement policies of Western democracies in response to Hitler's rearmament and remilitarization of the Rhineland.
