1915 original poster by Francisque Poulbot - National Defense Loan

1915

About the Item

Crafted in 1915 by the talented artist Francisque Poulbot, the original poster for the Emprunt de la Défense Nationale stands as a poignant symbol of patriotism and solidarity during World War I. Commissioned to promote national defense bonds, the poster embodies the spirit of unity and sacrifice that defined the war effort in France during this tumultuous period. Francisque Poulbot, known for his evocative illustrations depicting Parisian street scenes and the lives of the working class, brought his unique artistic vision to this poster. Through his distinctive style characterized by bold lines and expressive characters, Poulbot effectively conveyed the urgency of supporting the nation's defense. The poster features a heartfelt depiction of a French soldier bidding farewell to his family as he heads off to serve his country. With poignant imagery and emotive symbolism, Poulbot captured the sacrifices made by ordinary citizens in the service of their nation. The soldier's stoic resolve and the somber expressions of his loved ones evoke a sense of solemn duty and unwavering commitment to the homeland. At the forefront of the poster is the call to action: "Emprunt de la Défense Nationale" (National Defense Loan), urging citizens to contribute to the war effort by purchasing bonds. This rallying cry served as a reminder of the collective responsibility to support the troops and ensure the nation's defense.
