This print showing a battle taking place on the Bzura River is from the collection of World War I lubok posters held at the British Library. The caption explains: "The second onslaught of the German troops on Warsaw and the Vistula River was stopped along the line of the Bzura River and its tributary, the Rawka River. Further to the south, the line of defense continued along the rivers Pilica and Neda, to the confluence of the latter with the Vistula. The Russian army stood there like an impenetrable wall. The Germans made many desperate attempts to move their forces across the Bzura and the Rawka. Our heroes deliberately allowed the Germans to cross the river, sometimes with large units, only to attack without firing a single gunshot, stabbing and dumping the Germans into the river. Sometimes our incomparable artillery waited for the Germans to set up pontoon bridges and begin crossing the river, and then, with precise and fierce fire, they destroyed the bridges and drowned the infantry and artillery in the river. The Germans suffered enormous losses in dead and wounded."
