EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a powerful poster created by the renowned artist Ben Shahn in 1962. The poster was designed for the National Committee for a SANE Nuclear Policy, based in New York City. Shahn's artistic brilliance is evident as he combines various elements such as test images, collages, and impactful text to convey his anti-nuclear message. The image features an American face at its center, symbolizing the collective concern of the nation during the height of the Cold War. Surrounding this central figure are striking visuals that represent both the destructive nature of nuclear weapons and the urgent need to stop their proliferation. Shahn's modern art style adds depth and intensity to this thought-provoking piece. His use of bold colors and dynamic composition grabs viewers' attention while simultaneously conveying a sense of urgency about nuclear policy. This remarkable artwork belongs to The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, which houses significant historical prints from various periods.

As we reflect on this poignant image, let us be reminded that art has always played an essential role in shaping public opinion and inspiring change. This timeless masterpiece continues to resonate with audiences today, urging us all to work towards a world free from nuclear threats.
