EDITORS COMMENTS
This folio of hand-coloured lithographs, titled "Croix-Rouges en va-t-en guerre ; celle qui a la croix de guerre. ; et celle qui ne la a pas ; celle de l'U.F.F. ; celle de la S.B.M. ; La vieille dame boit ; celle qui est bonne pour les blessés ; supprimée à la Censure. et celle qui est bonne pour les toubibs ; celle de 1914. Signe distinctif : beaucoup de zézé ; et celle de 1918 : elle n'en fait pas ! ; La jolie chienne et son sourire gagnant," offers a unique and poignant perspective on the experiences of the French Red Cross during World War I. The series of images depicts various women, each with distinct characteristics and roles, contributing to the war effort. Some are adorned with the Croix de Guerre, a military decoration for gallantry, while others are shown as volunteers, nurses, or even a mischievous old lady stealing supplies. The lithographs, signed "beaucoup de zézé," are a testament to the spirit and determination of the women who served during this tumultuous time. Among the images, there is a striking portrait of a young woman with a winning smile and her loyal dog, "La jolie chienne," which adds a touch of lightness and hope amidst the hardships of war. The folio also includes a nurse with a stethoscope, representing the medical personnel who cared for the wounded soldiers, and a woman with the distinct marking "supprimée à la Censure," suggesting that her image was censored for some reason. These hand-coloured lithographs offer a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the French Red Cross during World War I, showcasing the courage, resilience, and diversity of the women who played essential roles in supporting the troops and keeping the spirit of the nation alive.
