EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures a moment of defiance and patriotism during the tumultuous years of the First World War. The image depicts a woman mockingly taunting a Zeppelin flying over Paris in 1915, with the title "Vas donc eh ballot" written across the map. In the midst of war and uncertainty, this bold act of resistance serves as a powerful symbol of French resilience and spirit.
The Zeppelin, used by the Germans as a form of aerial warfare during WWI, is met with laughter and mockery from the woman below. Her defiant stance against this intimidating aircraft represents the courage and determination of the French people in facing adversity.
The detailed map background adds depth to the scene, highlighting key locations in France affected by the war. The combination of historical context and artistic expression makes this print not only visually captivating but also emotionally resonant.
As we reflect on this moment captured in time, let us remember those who bravely stood up against oppression and fought for freedom. This image serves as a reminder of our shared history and collective strength in times of struggle.
