Item Details
Description
SPK (unknown French artist), "Confiance... ses amputations se poursuivent méthodiquement", colour lithographic poster, 45 x 29 inches, signed with monogram 'SPK', upper right corner. Circa 1942. A copy of this Second World War propaganda poster is in the collection of the British Library, London. The following notes are from the British Library website: This propaganda poster was probably produced in Vichy, France. It shows Winston Churchill as an octopus, with the tentacles representing British military intervention in the Middle East and Africa. The cutting of these tentacles reflects the thwarting of British actions in Norway, Germany, Syria, Somalia, Libya, Mers el Kebir and Dakar by Axis forces.
