'Des Herzog's Schicksal / The duke's fate' by by Karl Alex Wilke for ‘Die Muskete’ magazine nr. 290, published 1911.


Description: There’s a poem that goes along with the illustration about a very proud duke who killed all his lovers after he had slept with them so that no other men might have what he had. Until one day he finally met a woman he fell in love with and because he couldn’t bear killing her, he kills them both.
