The Empire Needs Men! All Answer the Call
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful and captivating World War II poster, created by Arthur Wardle. This color lithograph print, now part of a private collection, depicts an allegorical scene that symbolizes the strength and resilience of the British Empire during this tumultuous period in history. In the center of the composition stands a majestic lion, representing Great Britain. The lion's regal posture and unwavering gaze convey determination and courage in the face of adversity. It is accompanied by a young lion cub, embodying hope for future generations. Surrounding them are various elements that allude to different aspects of empire-building. The vibrant colors used in this artwork evoke a sense of patriotism and unity among its viewers. The image serves as a call to action for men across the empire to join forces and defend their homeland against external threats. The historical context surrounding this piece further enhances its significance. Created during the early 20th century when Europe was engulfed in war, it reflects both the challenges faced by Britain at that time and its resolve to protect its colonies. This photograph captures not only an important piece of art but also represents an era marked by sacrifice, bravery, and national pride. Its inclusion in Barbara Singer's collection highlights her appreciation for historical artifacts that tell compelling stories from our past. As we reflect on this image today, it serves as a reminder of our collective duty to preserve peace and uphold democratic values worldwide. "The Empire Needs Men! All Answer the Call" continues to inspire us with its timeless message: united we stand strong against any foe.
