EDITORS COMMENTS
Porte Plume Ideal Waterman l'Arme de la Paix" (Ideal Waterman, the Pen of Peace) is a captivating poster from the year 1919, showcasing a woman holding a colossal fountain pen as if it were a sword. The title, written in elegant script, alludes to the pen being a mightier weapon than any sword, emphasizing its power in conveying peace through the written word. The background of the poster is a serene landscape, with rolling hills, a clear blue sky, and a tranquil lake reflecting the image of the woman and her pen. The use of the French phrase "l'Arme de la Paix" (the weapon of peace) adds an allusion to the Treaty of Versailles, which ended the First World War and was signed in the same year. The woman's expression is one of determination and resolve, as she poises the pen above a blank sheet of paper. The pen itself is a work of art, with its gold-plated body, intricate design, and the flowing ink in the nib, creating a striking contrast against the woman's simple white blouse and the natural surroundings. The poster is a testament to the power of words and the written word in bringing about peace and resolving conflicts. It is a poignant reminder of the role that communication and writing played in the aftermath of the devastating First World War, and how they continue to be essential tools in shaping our world today. The poster's timeless design and powerful message make it a fascinating piece of history, worthy of display in any collection focused on art, advertising, or the history of writing instruments.
