Save Serbia – Our Ally

Save Serbia – Our Ally

Théophile Steinlen
1916. Color lithograph poster. 100 × 70 cm. Imperial War Museum, London.

A World War I fundraising poster commissioned by the Serbian Relief Committee of America. Steinlen—a leading Montmartre graphic artist famous for Le Chat Noir and social realist illustration—depicted the Great Retreat of the Serbian army and civilians through the Albanian mountains in the winter of 1915–1916. Produced in mass lithography for American distribution, the work adapted journalistic wartime reportage into a high-impact humanitarian donation campaign.
