EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative French poster, dating back to circa 1940, bears a powerful message from General Charles de Gaulle to the resilient people of France during the tumultuous days of World War II. With the fall of France to the Axis powers, the nation was on the brink of despair. But de Gaulle, who had taken refuge in London, refused to accept defeat. He rallied the Free French forces and called upon his fellow countrymen to remain steadfast in their national pride and resolve. The poster, signed by the General himself, features a bold image of the Tricolore flag waving proudly amidst the lush greenery of a garden. The simple yet eloquent message reads, "France has lost one battle, but France has not lost the war." These words served as a beacon of hope for the French people, reminding them that their spirit could not be broken, no matter the outcome of any single battle. The poster's raw, unadorned design reflects the urgency and determination of the moment. The use of the Tricolore flag, a symbol of French nationalism, further underscores the call to arms and the unwavering belief in the enduring strength of the French people. This powerful piece of history stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the human will to persevere in the face of adversity.
