WWII Poster


The colors are dark, moody and red-tinted. The font is very formal, and readable too. The arrangement of things is well spaced and realistic. The flag behind her means she has someone overseas and is waiting for him (or her) to return. The message on the image converys this too. It encourages women to go against conventions and get a job helping out the war effort. The woman looks very much like many women of her time too. The hairstyle and clothes perfectly fit the forties. This makes it very relatable.
