EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful poster from 1917 announces the Landes-Kriegsfursorge-Ausstellung, or National War Relief Exhibition, held in Pozsony (now Bratislava, Slovakia). The image at the center of the poster depicts a disabled veteran, his face determined and resolute, as he uses a prosthetic arm to harvest wheat with a scythe. The scene is idyllic, with a golden sun setting behind a rolling green field, and the veteran's uniform and the folds of his trousers suggest the passage of time and the enduring spirit of those who have served their country in war. The text surrounding the image encourages viewers to attend the exhibition, which aimed to provide relief and support to soldiers and their families affected by the ongoing conflict. The poster's simple yet impactful design effectively conveys the message of resilience and hope in the face of adversity, and serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by veterans and their families during times of war. The Landes-Kriegsfursorge-Ausstellung was just one of many war relief efforts that took place during the early 20th century, as communities came together to provide aid and support to those in need. This poster is a testament to the human spirit and the enduring power of community and solidarity in times of hardship.
