‘De Gaulle–Adenauer or: A tale of two Europes! My Glory! My Krupp!’ On 8 August 1960, French cartoonist Moisan takes an ironic view of the meeting between French President de Gaulle and Federal Chancellor Adenauer at the Château de Rambouillet, where the two men discuss the importance of forging good Franco-German relations and talk about the plans for reorganising Europe and NATO. General de Gaulle, depicted as master of the house, shows his guests around the Château de Rambouillet, a former royal residence and current presidential residence that is a historic symbol of France’s greatness and power. The allusion to Krupp emphasises the important role played in Germany by this steel firm, directed by the Krupp family, which flourished during the First and Second World Wars through arms manufacture.
