EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant front cover of La Baionnette magazine from September 1917 showcases a stunning colour lithograph titled "Les Sammies" by Guy Arnoux. This print, now housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, pays homage to the American soldiers during World War I. Known as "Sammies" these brave troops were affectionately nicknamed after Uncle Sam and became an integral part of the war effort. The artwork captures their spirit and valor with striking detail. In this image, we see a proud American soldier standing tall against a backdrop of the iconic Stars and Stripes flag. His uniform exudes strength and determination as he represents his country on foreign soil. The artist's skillful use of color brings life to every element within the composition, creating a sense of vibrancy that resonates with viewers. This powerful depiction serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by countless men who fought for freedom during one of history's most significant conflicts. It stands as a testament to their bravery and unwavering commitment to their nation. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece, we are transported back in time to an era filled with courage and resilience. It is through art like this that we can honor those who came before us while gaining insight into the profound impact they had on shaping our world today.
