EDITORS COMMENTS
Freedom is in Peril: Defend it with All Your Might" - This powerful and evocative poster from the onset of World War II serves as a poignant reminder of the urgency and gravity of the situation that Britain found itself in during the early days of the conflict. Dated 1939, this poster was produced by the Ministry of Information, a government department established to coordinate and control all official information about the war. The poster's striking design features a bold red, white, and blue color palette, with an image of a defiant, crowned figure of Freedom, her arms outstretched, standing atop a rocky outcrop. The ominous clouds gathering behind her and the ominous title in bold, capitalized letters convey a sense of imminent danger and the need for immediate action. The use of persuasive language and imagery in this poster was a common tactic employed by the Ministry of Information during wartime to rally public support and boost morale. The call to "defend" and "defence" freedom underscores the importance of individual action in the face of a common enemy. This poster is a testament to the powerful role that visual propaganda played in shaping public opinion during the 1930s and 1940s. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices and resilience of the British people during a time of great upheaval and uncertainty. This poster is part of the extensive collection of historical prints available at Mary Evans Prints Online, sourced from the esteemed Onslow Auctions Limited. It is not to be used for commercial purposes and is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of World War II, propaganda, or the visual culture of the 1930s and 1940s.
