The subject headings for this poster point to daggers and swords, which sets it apart from other war posters that show soldiers or landscapes. It advertised the Württemberg war exhibition held in Stuttgart from May to September 1916, one of several such shows German cities staged during the war to display military material and build public support for the war effort. The color lithograph is by the German designer Cissarz, whose work reflects the decorative modern poster style of the period.
