EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "You are not asked to die but to be thrifty" by Jules Abel Faivre, created between 1914-18, offers a satirical commentary on war profiteers during World War I. The artwork depicts a scene where a group of wealthy and overweight men sit around a lavish tablecloth laden with food and wine, while a hungry soldier stands nearby. This caricature serves as an indictment of those who profit from the suffering and sacrifice of others. It highlights the stark contrast between the opulence enjoyed by these war profiteers and the dire conditions faced by soldiers on the front lines. The artist's message is clear: instead of asking young men to give their lives for their country, society should demand that everyone contribute in more meaningful ways. Through clever social satire, Faivre exposes the greed and callousness prevalent among certain individuals during times of conflict. He reminds viewers that war should not be an opportunity for personal gain but rather a collective effort towards peace and prosperity for all. This thought-provoking print continues to resonate today as it challenges us to reflect on our own values and priorities in times of crisis. It serves as both a historical document capturing the spirit of its time and a timeless reminder that true heroism lies not in amassing wealth but in selflessness and compassion towards others.
