EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant and captivating print titled "Pour le Dernier Quart d Heure. . Aidez-Moi!. 1918" by Sem (Georges Goursat) takes us back to the tumultuous era of World War I. This colourful lithograph, measuring 79x120 cm, is a powerful piece of art that belongs to a private collection. The image depicts a scene filled with urgency and desperation. The caption "For the final quarter of an hour. . . help me!" adds an emotional plea for assistance during this critical time. It serves as a reminder of the financial struggles faced by France during the war. This publicity poster was created as part of a campaign promoting victory loans and war bonds, which were crucial in financing military operations. The artwork cleverly combines elements of cartoonish humor with patriotic symbolism, capturing attention while conveying its serious message. In this bustling scene, soldiers march alongside generals towards victory. The presence of economic figures highlights the importance of government support in funding wartime efforts. Through this artwork, Sem skillfully merges artistic expression with propaganda to inspire citizens to contribute financially towards their nation's cause. As we reflect on the historical significance captured within this image, it serves as a poignant reminder not only of France's struggle but also the global impact felt during World War I. This remarkable piece invites viewers to delve into history and appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and its role in shaping public perception during times of conflict.
