EDITORS COMMENTS
This and poignant print showcases a powerful propaganda poster created by Georges Redon during the First World War in France. The color lithograph, now part of a private collection, was designed to promote the National Loan campaign. The poster depicts a heartwarming scene that aims to evoke empathy and support for the war effort. In the foreground, we see an innocent child clutching onto a doll while lying in bed. This image symbolizes protection and innocence amidst the horrors of war. The child's mother is shown clasping her hands together with concern, emphasizing her role as protector. Redon's artwork serves as a reminder of the devastating impact war has on families and children. By highlighting this vulnerable aspect, he appeals to viewers' emotions and urges them to contribute to the National Loan initiative. The composition cleverly combines elements of furniture and furnishings from that era, further immersing us in the historical context of World War I. It stands as both an artistic masterpiece and an important historical artifact. As we reflect upon this photograph print, it reminds us not only of our duty towards future generations but also prompts us to consider how we can prevent such atrocities from happening again.
