Note: H.L. Oakley was one of the most talented and prolific silhouette artists of the 20th century. Despite his fame, he was determined to enlist and play his part in fighting for his country in the First World War. He joined up in the summer of 1914, but continued to create arresting images, including one of the most famous recruiting posters of the day, that was used not only across Britain, but in Australia, South Africa, and Canada.

Note: Fortunino Matania is remembered as the artist who captured the mood of a nation throughout the 20th century, from the sinking of the Titanic in 1912 through to capturing the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953, this Italian artist recorded almost every major event of the century. Yet, for many, it is his First World War paintings that remain his most haunting. As a war artist, he recorded some of the most emotive scenes of trench warfare to emerge from the Great War. His work brought the reality of life on the frontline home through his drawings and paintings for 'The Sphere' magazine and he became world renowned as he created patriotic works for Britain and America. This compilation brings the power of his work to a new generation to mark the centenary of the First World War. General adult

Note: Published in association with Historial de la Grande Guerre de Péronne Until the arrival of radio and television - and despite the influence of newspapers - posters were the major medium for mass communication. During the Great War all the belligerent nations produced an extraordinary variety of them - and they did so on a massive scale. As the 200 wartime and immediate post-war posters selected for this book reveal, they were one of the most potent, and memorable, ways of conveying news, information and propaganda. General adult
