EDITORS COMMENTS
Emprunt National 1920: A Testament to the Resilience of France This evocative print, titled "Emprunt National 1920" by Societe Centrale des Banques de Province, captures a poignant moment in French history. The image portrays a city engulfed in flames, with a cathedral standing defiantly in the foreground. The scene is framed by the coats of arms of various French cities, adding a sense of national unity and solidarity. The year 1920 was a pivotal time for France, as the country was still recovering from the devastating effects of World War I. The image of a burning city would have been a stark reminder of the destruction and loss that the nation had endured. However, the inclusion of the cathedral and the coats of arms sends a powerful message of hope and resilience. The Societe Centrale des Banques de Province, a central society of provincial banks, produced this poster as part of the Emprunt National campaign. The campaign aimed to raise funds for the reconstruction of war-torn areas and to support those affected by the conflict. The use of this powerful and emotive image would have been an effective way to galvanize the French people and inspire them to contribute to the cause. Despite the destruction and despair depicted in the print, there is a sense of determination and optimism that shines through. The cathedral, a symbol of faith and strength, stands tall amidst the chaos, reminding us that even in the darkest of times, hope and resilience can prevail.
