About
This advertisement for the Red Cross depicts the well-known international relief program as a loving mother cradling a child-size wounded soldier. Published in the final year of the war, it served as a response to what the country now saw as an exhausting and ultimately futile conflict. The image of the Red Cross as a loving mother gives the sense that though the war is not over yet, some relief may be found.
