EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative WWI recruitment poster, titled "Remember the Lusitania," measures 19 x 29 inches and was published by Henry Aldridge & Son Ltd. The image features the iconic ocean liner RMS Lusitania, a proud symbol of the Cunard Line and the pinnacle of maritime engineering at the time. The once majestic ship, now engulfed in flames and sinking beneath the waves, serves as a stark reminder of the brutal realities of war. The red text boldly reads, "It is your duty to take up the Sword of Justice, enlist today." The Lusitania, a British ocean liner, was torpedoed and sunk by a German U-boat off the coast of Ireland on May 7, 1915, during WWI. The tragic event resulted in the loss of over 1,100 lives, including 128 American citizens. This recruitment poster was designed to galvanize public sentiment against Germany and encourage men to enlist in the armed forces to defend their countries and protect innocent civilians from similar atrocities. The image of the burning Lusitania, with its once-proud funnels now belching smoke, serves as a poignant symbol of the devastating consequences of war. The sword of justice, held aloft in the poster, represents the call to action and the duty to protect and defend against the forces of violence and chaos. This evocative poster is a testament to the emotional appeal of recruitment propaganda and the enduring power of visual storytelling during times of conflict.
