"Journée de Paris, 14 Juillet 1915, au profit des Oeuvres de Guerre de L'Hotel-de-Ville pour les combattants, les blessés, les convalescents, les mutiles, les réfugiés, les prisonniers" (Paris Day, July 14, 1915, for the benefit of the War Works of L'Hotel-de-Ville for the combatants, the wounded, the convalescents, the disabled, the refugees, the prisoners)
This lovely turn-of-the-century poster promotes France's annual Bastille Day celebrations. This specific event is for charity for all those who are in need. A woman is shown with many children asking for money while below a scraggly soldier marches on. This poster is meant to inspire generosity for the sake of one's fellow Parisians. This is an original vintage poster.
