EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster, dated 1917, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime and the importance of providing support and care for those who have been injured. The image features a female figure, symbolizing Germany, tenderly placing a comforting hand on the shoulder of a disabled soldier while gesturing towards a serene seaside resort. The text above reads, "Vaterlandsspende, zur Errichtung Deutscher Kriegsbeschadigten Erholungsheime E.V." which translates to "Fatherland Fund for the Establishment of German War Invalids' Recreation Homes Association." The poster is a solicitation for donations to the Fatherland Fund, an initiative aimed at building recreational homes where disabled war veterans could recover and find respite from their physical and emotional wounds. The use of the seaside resort as a backdrop highlights the importance of rest and relaxation in the healing process. The poster's design is both powerful and emotive, using imagery and symbolism to convey the message of hope and healing. The female figure's gentle touch and the soldier's trusting expression create a sense of compassion and unity, emphasizing the collective responsibility of the German people to care for their wounded soldiers. This poster is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of providing support and care for those who have been injured. The image of the female figure and the disabled soldier, set against the backdrop of the seaside resort, is a powerful symbol of hope and healing in the midst of adversity.
