Welsh World War I poster

A poster from Wales advertising a fundraising event to support Welsh troops in World War I. The United Kingdom during this period underwent a number of societal changes, mainly due to wartime events: many of the class barriers of Edwardian England were diminished, women were drawn into mainstream employment and were granted suffrage as a result, and increased national sentiment helped to fuel the break up of the British Empire.

Artist: Frank Brangwyn; Restoration: Lise Broer
