What it is
A poster Herbert Rendl designed for the fifth Austro-Hungarian war loan in 1916, 95 by 63 cm, photographed from the sheet in the Eybl collection at the Vienna poster museum.
Why it matters
The title means subscribe to the 5th war loan! Beside flags, heraldic animals were the most popular symbols of these sheets, as the Eybl record notes.
What to notice
The double-headed eagle of the empire with Vienna and St Stephen's Cathedral behind it, laurels for the certainty of victory, and a band in the empire's traditional colours around it.
An empire's eagle, two years from the end.
