EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and symbolic image, titled "Emprunt National. Societe Generale," dates back to 1920 and depicts Victory, personified as a woman, holding an olive branch above her head as a gesture of peace and renewal. Surrounding her are determined men, each carrying tools such as shovels and picks, ready to contribute to the rebuilding of France in the aftermath of the devastating First World War. The scene is set against the backdrop of factories, symbolizing the industrial strength and resilience of the nation, and a peasant ploughing the land, representing the agricultural sector's role in the recovery. The poster, produced by Societe Generale, was likely used to promote the Emprunt National, a national loan campaign aimed at raising funds for France's post-war reconstruction. The image conveys a message of unity, hope, and determination in the face of adversity, making it a poignant reminder of the collective effort required to rebuild a nation after a major conflict.
