About the Item

The original poster from 1950 by Victor Koretzky, boldly proclaiming "We want peace! The division of Yalta, that's enough!" with the images of De Gaulle and Churchill, stands as a powerful testament to the fervent desire for peace and the rejection of the Yalta Conference's outcomes. Created in the aftermath of World War II and amidst the escalating tensions of the Cold War, Koretzky's poster encapsulates the sentiment of many who were disillusioned by the geopolitical ramifications of the Yalta Conference. Held in 1945, the Yalta Conference saw the leaders of the Allied powers—Joseph Stalin, Winston Churchill, and Franklin D. Roosevelt—discuss the post-war reorganization of Europe and the establishment of spheres of influence. The division of Europe agreed upon at Yalta, particularly the allocation of territories to the Soviet Union, was met with criticism and concern by those who feared the spread of communism and the erosion of democratic principles. Koretzky's poster channels this discontent into a call for peace and solidarity, with the portraits of De Gaulle and Churchill symbolizing resistance against perceived injustices. The bold typography and striking imagery command attention, conveying a sense of urgency and determination. By invoking the names of two prominent leaders known for their staunch opposition to totalitarianism, the poster aligns itself with the values of democracy and freedom.
