EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Friede, Arbeit, Brot!" takes us back to Germany in the year 1918. Created by the talented artist Wera von Bartels (1886-1922), this colour lithograph captures a powerful moment in history. The image showcases a scene filled with symbolism and propaganda. In the foreground, we see a group of soldiers standing proudly alongside women and men working diligently in a field. They are surrounded by smoke stacks from industrial factories, representing the nation's progress and productivity during wartime. A train passes through the background, reminding us of the country's mobilization efforts. The composition is rich with details that convey messages of peace and unity amidst conflict. A soldier holds both a bayonet and a loaf of bread, symbolizing how war affects every aspect of life - from combat to sustenance. Meanwhile, women can be seen harvesting potatoes - an essential food source during times of scarcity. "Friede, Arbeit, Brot!" serves as both propaganda and historical documentation of World War I or "the Great War". It reflects Germany's desire for peace while emphasizing the importance of hard work to achieve it. This thought-provoking piece from The Stapleton Collection invites viewers to reflect on the complexities of war and its impact on society. It reminds us that even in times of turmoil, humanity strives for peace and prosperity through collective effort.
