ON ne passe pas You won’t pass us as the French soldier stands guard.
This World War I poster by Lucien Jonas was created for the Compagnie Algérienne to encourage subscriptions to an Emprunt, or war bond, supporting the French war effort. Jonas depicts a soldier of the Troupes Coloniales bidding farewell to his family before leaving for the front—an image meant to highlight both sacrifice and duty. These troops were recruited from France’s North African colonies and fought alongside the poilus (French infantrymen). Issued in Paris by Devambez, this is a strong and emotional example of Jonas’ wartime propaganda work, printed in 1917 at the height of the conflict.

La Suprême Épopée (1919) – Original French Film Poster by René Pichon
Original 1919 French stone-lithograph poster for La Suprême Épopée, directed by Henri Desfontaines and produced by Vandal & Delac / Le Film d’Art at the end of World War I. Artwork is attributed to René Pichon, with printing by Éditions Delac, Vandal (Paris). The design presents Marianne leading the French troops, an allegorical image celebrating national triumph and resilience in the immediate post-Armistice era.
The film, scored by composer Camille Erlanger, was conceived as a patriotic “national epic,” reflecting the mood of France in 1919. This poster, in the large French grande format, survives as a rare piece of cinematic and cultural history, notable for its scale, artistry, and subject. Preserved in excellent condition, professionally linen-backed.

Jonas shows us the Poilu or (hairy guys) which was the pet name for french infantrymen during WWI. The coin in the upper right hand corner shows the date the war started but does not show the end so I guess the poster was printed at the beginning of the war and its to support our soldiers.
