Our Wounded
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and heartwarming print that graced the cover of La Baionette magazine on 1st June, 1916. Created by Francisque Poulbot, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the courage and indomitable spirit of soldiers wounded in the First World War. The illustration depicts a soldier lying on a stretcher, being carried by two stretcher bearers. Despite his injuries, there is an undeniable sense of resilience and optimism emanating from him. In a touching moment, he lightens the mood by jokingly telling his bearers that he is now much easier to carry since losing seven kilos due to his ordeal. This artwork serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men during one of history's most devastating conflicts. It showcases their ability to find humor even in the face of adversity and highlights their unwavering determination to maintain morale amidst unimaginable circumstances. Poulbot's portrayal not only pays tribute to these courageous individuals but also offers solace and hope for those who were directly affected by war. The vibrant colours used in this lithograph add depth and intensity to its message, capturing both the physical pain endured by soldiers and their unyielding spirit. Displayed at Musee de La Presse in Paris, France, "Our Wounded" continues to be an iconic representation of World War I's impact on humanity. It stands as a testament to the strength found within individuals even when faced with immense challenges –
