[ About the artwork ]

Food Will Win the War

Blue harbor water spreads behind a crowded ship's deck as a young man in an orange-red cap leans forward, right arm outstretched, while a dark-haired man raises a blue cap in a wave. Women in orange-red headscarves stand near a wooden bulwark, and the Statue of Liberty lifts her torch beside a hazy yellow-gold skyline. Food Will Win the War gathers these arriving figures into one bright lithographic call.

Made for lovers of wartime history, immigration stories and vintage graphic art, this print rewards a slow second look at the crowd and city beyond. Hang it in a living room where guests gather, or line a study wall with era-defining messaging. Browse more in Vintage Propaganda Posters to build a themed grouping.

About
this print.

01

What does the lettering on this poster say?

The printed text reads FOOD WILL WIN THE WAR, followed by the lines You came here seeking Freedom, You must now help to preserve it, WHEAT is needed for the allies, and Waste nothing, credited to the UNITED STATES FOOD ADMINISTRATION across the lower art.

02

What scene does the artwork show?

It shows immigrants on a ship's deck viewing the Statue of Liberty. A young man points forward, a man behind waves a blue cap, and women in orange-red headscarves stand by a wooden bulwark, with distant skyscrapers and a domed tower in hazy bright sky.

03

What printing technique was used for the original?

The original is a colour lithograph in full colour, using a bright palette of blue water, yellow-gold skyline haze, orange-red scarves and olive greens. Our reproduction reproduces those tones with giclée printing on archival matte paper for clean detail and colour.

04

Which size should I choose for my wall?

Choose from eight sizes, from a compact 8"x12" up to a large 26"x40". Smaller sizes suit a study or hallway gallery grouping, while 24"x36" or 26"x40" hold a living room feature wall. The full artwork is retained with matching edge padding where a size needs it.
