EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful WWI poster, titled "Pour le dernier quart d'heure aidez moi! (For the last quarter of an hour help me!)" is a poignant call to action for subscriptions to the National War Loan. Created in 1917 by Sem, Georges Goursat, this image captures the desperation and urgency of war-time financing.
The soldier depicted in the poster stands knee-deep in mud, symbolizing the harsh realities of battle on the Western Front. His outstretched hand reaches towards the viewer, pleading for support in the final moments of struggle. The message is clear - every contribution counts towards national defense and supporting our troops.
In a time when financial resources were crucial for military operations, this poster served as a persuasive tool to encourage citizens to subscribe to the National War Loan through Banque Nationale de Credit. The imagery of soldiers marching off into battle further emphasizes the importance of unity and solidarity during wartime.
As we reflect on this historical artifact from 1917, let us remember those who sacrificed their lives for freedom and honor their legacy by continuing to support our armed forces. This print serves as a reminder that even small contributions can make a big difference in times of need.
