EDITORS COMMENTS
- a poignant and powerful message conveyed through the iconic WW2 poster created by renowned British graphic artist, Fougasse, in the 1940s. This evocative image, published by The Bristol Tramways & Carriage Co Ltd, was part of a larger road safety campaign during the tumultuous period of World War II. The poster depicts a determined man, hurrying through the rain with an umbrella in one hand and a briefcase in the other, as he dashes across a busy street. The ominous clouds overhead and the puddles on the ground emphasize the urgency of his actions. The raincoat he wears is pulled tightly around him, shielding him from the inclement weather. The poster's message is clear: time is of the essence, and one should not take chances when it comes to crossing the street. This was a crucial reminder during wartime, when the distractions and dangers of the era could easily lead to carelessness and even fatal accidents. Fougasse, whose real name was Cyrus Townsend Boddy, was a prolific and influential graphic artist, known for his work in advertising, illustration, and propaganda. His distinctive style, characterized by its wit, humor, and social commentary, made him a favorite of the British Ministry of Information during WW2. This poster is a testament to his ability to capture the spirit of the times and convey important messages in a compelling and memorable way. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back to a bygone era, a time of uncertainty and resilience, when the simple act of crossing the street took on new meaning and significance. The rain may have been falling, but the determination and urgency of the man in the poster remind us that, no matter the challenges we face, there's always just time to get across.
