EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative poster, titled "England Expects Every Man to do his Duty and Join the Army Today," was produced during the early years of the First World War, around 1914-1915. The image, which features a stern and determined-looking King George V in military uniform, with the Union Jack draped behind him, was a call to action for British men to enlist and serve their country in the ongoing conflict. The poster's bold and striking design, with its use of red, white, and blue, was intended to evoke a sense of patriotism and duty, as well as to convey the urgency of the situation. The simple yet effective slogan, "England Expects Every Man to do his Duty," was a rallying cry that resonated deeply with the British people, who were determined to do their part in the face of the great war. The poster was produced during a time when the First World War was still in its early stages, and the full scale of the conflict was only beginning to be understood. Despite the challenges and hardships that lay ahead, the British people responded to the call to arms with courage and determination, and the poster became a symbol of their collective spirit and resolve. Today, this historic poster serves as a reminder of the sacrifices and courage of the men and women who answered the call to duty during the First World War, and of the enduring power of art and design to inspire and motivate people in times of need.
