EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, created by Eugene Courboin in 1917, captures a powerful moment of unity and cooperation during World War I. The poster depicts Uncle Sam, the symbol of American patriotism, shaking hands with the Marquis de Lafayette, a prominent French figure from the Revolutionary War era. The image showcases an early alliance between the United States and France as they fought alongside each other against common enemies. Both men are depicted on horseback, emphasizing their strength and determination. The detailed illustration highlights their patriotic spirit as they come together to face the challenges of war. The statue in the background serves as a reminder of history's influence on present-day events. It represents not only Lafayette's significant role in America's fight for independence but also his enduring legacy as a symbol of Franco-American friendship. Courboin's lithograph beautifully captures this historic moment while evoking feelings of pride and solidarity among viewers. It serves as a testament to the importance of international alliances during times of conflict and reminds us that working together can lead to great achievements. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this remarkable piece from 1917, allowing us to reflect upon the sacrifices made by those who came before us and appreciate the power of collaboration in overcoming adversity.
