EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Save Serbia, Our Ally" captures a powerful moment in history during World War I. Created in 1916 by the talented artist Theophile Alexandre Steinlen, this colour lithograph serves as an American propaganda poster. It depicts Serbian soldiers and civilians who have been left devastated after their defeat by the Austro-German army. In the winter of 1915, approximately 700,000 Serbian people sought refuge in the mountains of Albania to escape further harm. This image showcases what remains of the Serbian nation - a resilient population determined to survive amidst unimaginable hardships. The poster's purpose is clear: it aims to rally support for Serbia and appeal for aid from its allies. With its striking design and vintage appeal, it calls upon viewers' empathy and urges them to contribute towards the war effort. This artwork not only highlights the international nature of World War I but also emphasizes America's role as an ally to Serbia. It symbolizes unity between nations during one of history's most devastating conflicts. Preserved within a private collection today, this photograph print continues to serve as a reminder of the immense sacrifices made by individuals and nations alike during times of war. Its historical significance lies not only in its artistic value but also in its ability to evoke emotions and inspire action even after more than a century has passed since its creation.
