EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print captures the esteemed council members of the OEEC on 17 February 1949, a pivotal moment in European politics. The OEEC, which served as the forerunner of the OECD, brought together influential figures from various nations to foster economic cooperation and rebuild war-torn Europe after World War II. From left to right, we see Max Petitpierre representing Switzerland, Dr. Osten Unden proudly representing Sweden, Joseph Bech standing tall for Luxembourg, Robert Schuman exuding confidence as he represents France's interests. Paul-Henri Spaak radiates determination while representing Belgium alongside Sir Stafford Cripps who embodies British diplomacy. Count Sforza brings his Italian charm and expertise to the table. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its representation of these prominent individuals but also in their collective commitment towards a united Europe. Their collaboration paved the way for future international organizations like the OECD that continue to shape global policies today. Preserved by Universal Images Group (UIG), this print serves as a powerful reminder of how political leaders can come together despite differences to work towards common goals. It is an invaluable piece of history that symbolizes hope and resilience during challenging times
