EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment in history during the First World War. The poster, created by renowned illustrator Howard Chandler Christy in 1917, was part of the United States Navy's recruitment campaign to encourage women to join their ranks. The image depicts a determined young woman dressed in a military uniform, gazing confidently into the distance. The slogan "Gee!! I wish I were a man, I'd join the Navy" boldly emblazoned across the poster reflects both her longing for equality and her desire to contribute to the war effort. In an era when gender roles were strictly defined, this recruitment drive challenged societal norms and encouraged women to step forward and be counted. It symbolizes a turning point in history where women began breaking barriers and proving their capabilities beyond traditional domestic roles. Christy's illustration skillfully captures the spirit of patriotism and empowerment that characterized this period. His attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the intricate rendering of the military uniform down to capturing the determination on our protagonist's face. This iconic poster stands as a testament not only to American culture during World War I but also as an enduring symbol of progress towards gender equality within society. It serves as a reminder that courage knows no boundaries or limitations based on gender - anyone can rise up and make a difference when called upon.
