Allies Commemorative Condition Freedom Good Pottery Reads Right Transfer Unmarked Ware
EDITORS COMMENTS
This unmarked plate, featuring a transfer depicting the flags of the Allied powers during World War I, carries the inscription "FOR RIGHT AND FREEDOM." The good condition of this commemorative ware indicates that it was likely produced towards the end of the war or in its aftermath, as a tribute to the victorious Allies and the ideals for which they fought. The First World War, also known as the Great War, was a global conflict that lasted from 1914 to 1918. It involved numerous countries, with the Allies ultimately emerging victorious against the Central Powers. The war brought about significant changes to the political and social landscape of Europe and the world, including the end of empires, the rise of new nations, and the establishment of the League of Nations. This plate, with its simple yet powerful message, serves as a reminder of the ideals that motivated the Allied forces during the war. The flags displayed on the plate include those of the United States, Great Britain, France, and Russia, among others, reflecting the international coalition that came together to fight for peace and justice. The transfer technique used on this plate was a popular method for decorating ceramics during the early 20th century. It involved transferring an image or design onto the surface of the pottery using a paper or film transfer method. The resulting images were often highly detailed and vivid, making them a popular choice for commemorative ware and collectibles. Today, this unmarked plate is a valuable historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the collective memory of a pivotal moment in world history. Its simple yet powerful message continues to resonate, reminding us of the enduring importance of standing up for what is right and fighting for freedom.
