Save the Products of the Land, Eat More Fish, 1914-18 - A Powerful Reminder of War-Time Sacrifices
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "Save the Products of the Land, Eat More Fish, 1914-18" by Charles Livingston Bull serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during World War I. Measuring 76x52 cm and housed in the Newberry Library in Chicago, Illinois, this color lithograph captures attention with its vibrant hues. The image depicts an underwater scene teeming with various fish species swimming amidst a backdrop of lush marine vegetation. The message is clear - to alleviate food shortages on land caused by war efforts and rationing measures, people are encouraged to consume more fish as an alternative source of sustenance. During this tumultuous period in history known as "The Great War" governments worldwide sought innovative ways to support their troops and populations at home. This artwork represents one such effort by the United States Food Administration to promote conservation and self-sufficiency. Bull's skillful use of lithography brings life to these aquatic creatures while emphasizing their importance for both survival and national unity. By urging citizens to embrace this dietary shift towards fish consumption, it symbolizes collective responsibility towards winning the war. As we reflect upon this piece today, it serves as a powerful testament not only to wartime propaganda but also to our ability as humans to adapt and make sacrifices for a greater cause. It stands as a timeless reminder that even in times of conflict or crisis, small changes can have significant impacts on preserving resources and supporting our communities.
