What it is
A colour lithograph Alexander O. Levy made in 1918 to advertise a set of six of his signed lithographs, 77 by 64 cm.
Why it matters
The text dedicates the set, a tribute to the American dead, to Woodrow Wilson, President of the United States, as the clear-visioned herald of true democracy and world peace.
What to notice
Liberty looks on as a woman places a wreath on the body of a soldier.
A wreath laid, with Liberty as witness.
