FAQ About The Influence of Wartime Posters on Visual Communication
In what ways did World War I posters differ from World War II posters?
World War I posters often focused on themes of nationalism, harsh depictions of the enemy, and broad-based appeals for support. In contrast, World War II posters expanded to include themes of production, efficiency, and total war effort, targeting specific groups like women to join the workforce. The artistic styles also evolved, with more sophisticated graphics and layout designs in the latter war.
