EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant World War I German poster, titled "Der eiserne Blumenteufel" or "The Iron Flower Devil," was created circa 1918 to raise awareness and support for war widows and orphans in Germany. The image of a stern-faced man with a flower wreath adorned with poppies and other flowers, framed by the mountains of Tyrol, conveys a sense of resilience and hope amidst the devastation of war. The Iron Flower Devil was a popular mythological figure in German folklore, believed to protect travelers in the Alps. By using this symbol, the poster creators aimed to evoke a sense of protection and care for those left behind by the soldiers on the battlefield. The text at the bottom of the poster reads, "Germany's War Widows and Orphans Fund," encouraging citizens to donate and support those in need. The use of the mountainous landscape in the background emphasizes the idea of unity and strength in the face of adversity. The soldiers depicted in the foreground, standing tall and determined, serve as a reminder of the sacrifices made by the military during the war. The poster's powerful imagery and message resonated with the German people, making it an effective tool for raising awareness and funds for those affected by the war. This poignant and evocative poster is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of coming together to support those in need. It is a testament to the resilience and compassion of the German people during a time of great hardship and loss.
