EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster design by renowned British artist Frank Brangwyn was created in 1916 to raise awareness and funds for a French Army orphanage during the First World War. The poignant image depicts a long table filled with children, seated at chairs, with their heads bowed in prayer or thought. The orphanage, known as "Orphélinat des Armées," was established to provide shelter and care for the countless children left orphaned or displaced by the devastating conflict. Brangwyn's powerful composition elicits a sense of compassion and empathy, as the children's vulnerability and resilience are brought to the forefront. The muted colors and simple yet emotive lines of the poster reflect the austere conditions of the time, while also emphasizing the importance of community and support during wartime. This poignant piece of art serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the enduring power of charity and compassion.
