Painting Description
"Back Our Girls Over There" is a World War I-era poster created around 1918 by the American artist Clarence F. Underwood. This poster was part of a broader campaign by the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA) to garner support for their efforts during the war. The YWCA played a crucial role in providing aid and comfort to soldiers and supporting the war effort through various initiatives, including establishing hostels, canteens, and recreational facilities for troops stationed abroad.
Clarence F. Underwood, known for his illustrative work, brought a compelling visual appeal to the poster. The artwork typically features a young woman, symbolizing the American women who were contributing to the war effort, often depicted in a patriotic and earnest manner. The imagery and design were intended to evoke a sense of duty, patriotism, and support for the women who were serving in various capacities overseas.
The slogan "Back Our Girls Over There" was a call to action, urging the American public to support the YWCA's mission financially and morally. During World War I, posters like this were a primary means of communication and propaganda, effectively rallying public sentiment and resources for the war effort. The YWCA's campaign was particularly significant as it highlighted the essential roles women played during the war, both on the home front and abroad.
This poster is a historical artifact that reflects the social and cultural dynamics of the United States during World War I. It underscores the contributions of women during the war and the importance of public support for their efforts. Today, "Back Our Girls Over There" stands as a testament to the vital role of women in wartime and the power of visual art in mobilizing public opinion and support.
