image: a French Revolutionary soldier and a First World War 'poilu' stand side by side, both holding flags and singing 'La
Marseillaise', the anthem of the French Republic. Below them the opening bar of 'La Marseillaise' is marked out. This use of historical
reference and patriotic fervour was common in French First World War popular art and propaganda, particularly the use of Revolutionary
references and appeals to the key values of liberty, equality and fraternity. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Subjects: | French Army Military Personnel flag / banner / standard Uniforms music / song / anthems First World War | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Herouard | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
