EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage poster from 1918, titled "POSTER: TUBERCULOSIS" serves as a powerful reminder of the fight against this deadly disease. Created by French artist George Dorival, the lithograph features a striking illustration that captures the essence of tuberculosis as "the most malevolent of reptiles". The image portrays a menacing snake coiled around text that emphasizes the urgency to conquer tuberculosis. Its vibrant colors and intricate details draw attention to the importance of raising awareness about this early 20th-century epidemic. Dorival's artistic talent shines through in his ability to convey both fear and determination in one image. The snake symbolizes the insidious nature of tuberculosis, lurking in society and threatening lives. By likening it to a reptile, Dorival underscores its treacherous character. In an era before advanced medical treatments were available, vaccination was crucial for combating tuberculosis. This poster aims to encourage viewers to take action against this devastating disease by promoting vaccination as an effective defense mechanism. Preserved by Granger Art on Demand and part of The Granger Collection, this historical artifact provides us with valuable insights into public health campaigns during that time period. It stands as a testament to our ongoing battle against infectious diseases while reminding us of how far we have come in terms of medical advancements since then.
