Description
English: Propaganda posters, etc. from World War I 1914 – 1918:
  • MARTINI, Alberto. 🇮🇹 Danza Macabra -28, 1915.


Propaganda, a form of communication aiming to sway perspectives and behaviors, extensively used posters during World War I to foster nationalism, encourage enlistment, and demonize enemies. These posters, exploiting advancements in print technology, were instrumental in shaping public opinion on a global scale. With thousands of visually compelling designs, they reflected societal shifts and addressed various wartime themes like military recruitment, women's roles, and economic sacrifices.

Although posters played a pivotal role in wartime propaganda during WWI and WWII, their prominence waned in subsequent conflicts due to the rise of other media like radio. Despite its negative connotations, propaganda's influence on art and public opinion endures, exemplified by the lasting impact of these wartime posters.
