EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Les grandes batailles d'Alsace" (The Great Battles of Alsace), was created by the renowned French artist Lucien Auglay around 1920. Auglay, born in 1880, was a prominent figure in the world of social and political poster art during the early 20th century. This particular work is a color lithography, showcasing the artist's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of historical events through vivid imagery. The poster commemorates the battles fought in the Alsace region of France during the First World War. Alsace, a territory that had been passed back and forth between France and Germany throughout history, was once again a focal point of conflict during the Great War. The image portrays a dramatic scene of the Western Front, with soldiers from the French Republic bravely advancing against the German forces. The use of bold colors and dynamic compositions evoke a sense of patriotism and determination, reflecting the spirit of the French people during this tumultuous time. The poster serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the importance of the Alsace region in shaping the political landscape of Europe. Today, it stands as a testament to the artistic and historical significance of the period, offering a glimpse into the past through the powerful medium of fine art. This print is part of a private collection and is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on the history of the First World War, social and political posters, or the works of Lucien Auglay.
