What it is
A colour lithograph Francis Luis Mora drew in 1918, printed by the W. F. Powers Co. of New York, 76 by 51 cm.
Why it matters
Food saved in America was food for France, and the sheet puts the whole argument in three words. Mora was a Uruguayan-born American figure painter known for his pictures of American life.
What to notice
A girl feeding soup to a wounded soldier.
A spoonful, held out to an ally.
