EDITORS COMMENTS
Get it Up: The Stork's Call to French Parents in the 1950s (Mary Evans Prints Online/Folio Society) Amidst the ruins of a war-torn Europe, the future seemed uncertain for many nations, including France. The devastating consequences of World War Two left a profound impact on the population, with many families mourning the loss of loved ones and struggling to rebuild their lives. Amidst this somber backdrop, a symbol of hope and renewal emerged: the stork. This charming photograph, titled "Get it Up: The Stork Says 'En l'air!' (Get it Up!)", captures the whimsical and playful spirit of the stork as it encourages French parents to replenish the population. The image of the stork, with its long legs dangling in the air and a determined expression on its face, is a nod to the folklore that has long associated the bird with childbirth and new life. The stork's message, "En l'air!" or "Get it Up!" in English, is a call to action for French parents to rise to the challenge of starting a family. The image was likely created in the 1950s, a time when France and other European nations were actively encouraging families to have more children in order to rebuild their populations. The photograph is a testament to the power of folklore and symbolism in inspiring hope and renewal, even in the darkest of times. It serves as a reminder of the resilience of the human spirit and the enduring belief in the importance of new life and the next generation.
