Emprunt National 1918 - Societe Generale, pour nous rendre en Terre de France
EDITORS COMMENTS
(National Loan 1918: Societe Generale, helping us return to French soil) is a powerful and evocative poster from the end of World War I. This image, created by an unknown artist, was produced by Societe Generale, a leading French financial institution, to encourage citizens to contribute to the national loan campaign of 1918. The poster features a serene and hopeful scene of a family, dressed in their Sunday best, making their way towards the horizon, with their backs to the viewer. The mother holds a young child in her arms, while her husband carries a suitcase and a small boy walks alongside them. In the background, the rolling hills of France are visible, symbolizing the homeland they are returning to. The title of the poster, "Emprunt National 1918: Societe Generale, pour nous rendre en Terre de France" (National Loan 1918: Societe Generale, helping us return to French soil), is inscribed at the bottom, along with the phrase "Entirely Douce" (Gentle and Soft), emphasizing the sense of peace and tranquility that the return to France represents. The poster reflects the collective desire for peace and reunification after the devastating years of war. It also underscores the crucial role that financial institutions played in supporting the war effort and helping to rebuild France in its aftermath. The image of the family, making their way towards home, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and hopes of the French people during this period. Overall, this poster is a moving and inspiring testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
