EDITORS COMMENTS
The "WAKE UP AMERICA POSTER" is a powerful and iconic image that encapsulates the spirit of patriotism during World War I. Created by James Montgomery Flagg in 1917, this poster serves as a rallying cry for Americans to rise from their slumber and actively participate in the war effort. In this print, we see a striking depiction of Lady Liberty draped in the American flag, her face determined and resolute. The text boldly proclaims "Wake Up America!" urging citizens to awaken from their complacency and join the fight for freedom. Flagg's use of strong colors and bold typography adds to the urgency conveyed by this piece. This poster was part of a larger propaganda campaign aimed at mobilizing public support for the war. It called upon both men and women to contribute their time, resources, and skills towards victory. Women played an especially important role during this period as they took on jobs traditionally held by men who were serving overseas. More than just a historical artifact, this print continues to resonate today as a reminder of our duty to remain vigilant in protecting our nation's values. Its timeless message urges us not only to remember our past but also inspires us to be active participants in shaping our future. As we reflect on this artwork from Granger Art on Demand, let it serve as a call-to-action for all Americans - reminding us that even amidst adversity, unity can prevail when we wake up together with determination and purpose.
