An Original Vintage Linenbacked French World War I (WWI) Poster (measures 30 3/4" x 44 1/2") (Learn More) Sur la Terre Ennemie les Prisonniers Russes Meurent de Faim (literally translates to "Russian Prisoners Die of Hunger on Enemy Land"), the 1917 French World War I (WWI) poster featuring Theophile-Alexandre Steinlen art of Russian POWs starving in German camps. Artist: Theophile-Alexandre Steinlen Condition: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some tiny paper loss in the top quarter of the vertical foldline. There was a small circular area of paper loss in the lower right of the image, just above the bottom foldline. There were some tiny areas of paper loss in the left and right ends of the horizontal folds. There were some creases, tears, and tiny areas of paper loss in the borders, with a pinhole in each corner. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer linenbacked the poster "in the European style", on a very thin linen, meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, as was often done with war posters. One could display this poster as it is, or certainly it could be removed from the thin linen backing and properly re-backed. Learn More about condition grades
