EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative WWI poster from 1917, part of the French 3rd War Loan Issue, calls upon the French people to invest in the war effort in order to hasten peace through victory. The powerful allegorical image features a woman, dressed in the traditional French Phrygian cap, cradling a baby as an angel with outstretched wings and a sword hovers protectively above. The angel's other hand holds an olive branch, symbolizing the desired outcome of the conflict. The message is clear: by investing in the national defense and finance, the people can contribute to the war effort and bring about a swift end to the hostilities. The poster's emotive appeal to the collective responsibility of the population to secure a peaceful future for the next generation is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime. This poster, with its striking imagery and powerful message, is a testament to the enduring spirit of resilience and hope during the Great War.
