Military

Military subjects have drawn commercial artists and printmakers for well over a century, driven by wartime propaganda campaigns, recruitment drives, and the peacetime need to maintain public support for standing forces. The two World Wars produced some of the most direct and technically ambitious graphic work of the 20th century, with governments commissioning leading illustrators to reach mass audiences quickly. The pieces shown here are period originals from that tradition.
