The image displays a typed text in German on a white paper mounted on a black background. Below the typed text, there is a handwritten number "147/165" indicating it is a limited edition print, and another handwritten mark that appears to be an initial or signature in the lower right corner.

The text discusses the political trials in recent years, particularly noting how figures such as Franz-Josef Strauß or former Nazi leaders, and particularly the then Chancellor and President, have been subjects of political criticism. It mentions a recent example which is the trial of Mr. Strauß against Hachfeld. The text argues that these trials target artworks that criticize feigned images of society, and accuses the judicial system of confirming as insults things that are very close to the truth. It concludes by saying that efforts are made to turn the world upside down in court and make the accuser an accused.

Below the main text, an additional note reads:
"H.P. Alvermann
1971 in seiner Verteidigungsrede vor dem Kölner Landgericht anlässlich des Prozesses gegen sein »Deutsches Notstandsschwein«"
This translates to:
"H.P. Alvermann
1971 in his defense speech before the Cologne Regional Court on the occasion of the trial against his »German Emergency Pig«"

This provides context that the text is from a defense speech by H.P. Alvermann related to a trial involving his controversial artwork.

The image appears to be a text-based work, likely an artistic statement or commentary. It describes various "processes of political color" that have occurred in recent years, mentioning figures like Franz-Josef Strauß and the "former Nazi-like" members of his political circle.

The text discusses a legal process against Herr Strauß regarding the issue of Nachfeld, describing it as an example of "processes that strain against each other" and the artist's view that the artwork in question "reveals what it is and not - as the kitsch or the Springer press - how it is today portrayed."

The text also mentions that the "true reason" for this legal process is still not clear, and that the world is being turned "upside down" by the court's judgment on this matter.

Overall, the image presents a critical commentary on political and social dynamics, using the specific case of the legal process against Herr Strauß as an example to illustrate broader themes.

The image shows a document written in German, which appears to be a statement or open letter. Below is a translation and summary of the text:

In recent years, there have been more political trials.

Exemplary of this are the trials against Franz-Josef Strauss or former Nazis who were once a lost federal chancellor and his president, the targets of political criticism.

The latest example of this is the trial against Herr Strauss in Hachfeld.

These trials, which are strenuous, which rob one of one's leisure time through a work of art, which is shown, recorded, and tonight - as the Kitsch or the Springer Press - the people are so described, as they do not want to see themselves.

Their offense is to have expressed and persecuted for justice, as truth is not yet too much.

One tries to silence the world for justice by putting it on the head and making the accuser into the accused.

At the bottom of the document, there is a signature and additional text:

H.P. Alvermann
1971 in his defense speech before the Cologne Regional Court on the occasion of the trial against his "German Emergency Defense"

The document is numbered 147/165, indicating it might be part of a limited series or collection. The text discusses political trials and the suppression of artistic and political expression, highlighting the struggles of individuals who speak out against injustice.
