EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster from World War I France, titled "Don't forget those who are cold," serves as a poignant reminder of the humanitarian efforts that continued to thrive amidst the harsh realities of war. Dated 1916, the poster was produced during a time when the conflict had long since settled into a stalemate on the Western Front. With the bitter winter weather setting in, soldiers on both sides faced the harsh conditions of the trenches, often without adequate shelter or warm clothing. The French Red Cross, along with other charitable organizations, responded to this crisis by launching campaigns to collect and distribute warm clothing and blankets to those in need. This poster, featuring a mother and child huddled together for warmth, was one of many produced to raise awareness and funds for these initiatives. The text implores viewers to "do not forget" the plight of those on the front lines and to make a donation to help keep them warm. The poster's design is simple yet powerful, with the use of bold, red text and a heart-wrenching image that tugs at the heartstrings. The muted, earth-toned background further emphasizes the stark contrast between the comfort of home and the harsh realities of war. The poster's message remains as relevant today as it was a century ago, reminding us of the importance of compassion and solidarity, especially during times of crisis. This historical artifact offers a glimpse into the resilience and generosity of the human spirit during a time of great adversity. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers and civilians alike during the First World War and the importance of coming together to support those in need.
