Size
$39.00
What it is
A colour lithograph by an unnamed artist, made for the Victory Liberty Loan of 1919, 28 by 54 cm, a sheet wider than it is tall.
Why it matters
The fighting had stopped when the Victory Liberty Loan opened in 1919, and the sheet kept the enemy in the room anyway: show him we're in earnest.
What to notice
A pair of staring eyes on a black ground, and nothing else in the picture.
The enemy, reduced to a stare.
