EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Britain Shall not Burn, 1940" showcases a coloured lithograph created by an anonymous English artist during the 20th century. The image, now part of a private collection, was originally used as a German Blitz poster to instill defiance and boost morale during the Second World War. The artwork depicts a powerful scene of anger and rage in response to the relentless firebombing carried out by the Luftwaffe. It symbolizes Britain's unwavering determination to resist and overcome this destructive onslaught. The caption "Beat Firebomb Fritz" boldly emphasizes the nation's refusal to succumb to fear or surrender. Through its striking imagery and emotional impact, this propaganda piece aimed to unite citizens in their fight against adversity. It serves as a reminder of the resilience displayed by Londoners amidst constant bombardment, highlighting their unyielding spirit. The use of vibrant colours adds depth and intensity to this historical engraving, capturing both the devastation caused by bombs and the fervent desire for victory. This photograph print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance as an emblematic representation of British resistance during one of humanity's darkest periods.
