EDITORS COMMENTS
(For the Freedom of the World): A Call to Action in 1917 This evocative poster, created in 1917, features an image of the Statue of Liberty emerging on the horizon, beckoning the world with her torch held high. The French text at the bottom reads, "Pour la liberté du monde. Souscrivez ? emprunt national ?" (For the freedom of the world. Subscribe to the national loan ?). The poster calls for citizens to contribute to a national loan, specifically with Banque Nationale de Crédit. The Statue of Liberty, a symbol of freedom and democracy, was a potent image during this time. The United States had only recently entered World War I, and the ideals of liberty and freedom were at the forefront of the global consciousness. The poster's use of the Statue of Liberty served to emphasize the importance of these values and to encourage citizens to support the war effort. The call to action, "souscrivez à l'emprunt national" (subscribe to the national loan), was a common phrase used during this period to encourage citizens to contribute financially to the war effort. The loan was likely used to fund the war effort, either directly or indirectly, through the purchase of war bonds or other means. This poster serves as a powerful reminder of the role that symbols and messaging played in rallying support for a cause during times of conflict. The image of the Statue of Liberty, combined with the call to action, would have resonated deeply with the French people and helped to galvanize their support for the war effort. The poster is a valuable historical artifact, providing insight into the ways that governments and organizations used visual imagery and messaging to mobilize public opinion and support during a time of war. It is a testament to the enduring power of symbols and the importance of freedom and democracy in shaping the course of history.
