Colored poster, 119x78.5 cm. Typographical data at bottom. Signature on the left. Good condition. Patriotic First World War poster published in Paris in 1918 to encourage the French to subscribe to the Fourth National Defense Loan. The motif depicts a French soldier about to strangle the imperial eagle, the recognized symbol of the Kaiser and Imperial Germany. On the ground lies the classic German helmet of the time, the pickel cap or 'pickelhaube'. The fight was hard, his uniform is partly torn and bleeding from the wounds inflicted by the eagle's beak. The background, with its pastel tones and finely drawn details, presents a striking contrast to the foreground, dominated by darker tones, reinforcing the impact of the central message.Posters were an excellent means of propaganda and many were created with allegorical 'patriotic' themes, intended to arouse emotion and generosity.
