Titled "Die Fahnen flattern hoch im Wind!" ("The flags flutter high in the wind!"), this large color lithograph was printed in 1917 and credited to Anton Hoffmann of Munich. Its billowing banners and rousing title reflect the patriotic appeals German printers produced throughout the First World War, when posters like this one were used to rally civilians behind the war effort. At roughly 131 by 96 centimeters, it was built to be seen from a distance on a street wall, and its bold, flag-filled design shows how the medium depended on immediate visual impact.
