The poster I have been drawn to and selected to analyze is “Feminine Patriotism.” First impression of the poster, is there are three women in different uniform’s. Exploring this concept of this poster, it can be considered this poster is targeted toward women. The government probably felt this poster would be a direct way that would encourage women across the nation to enlist in the service, joining the Women’s Army Corps (WAC) or nursing corps. Additionally, this poster included swaying women in the domestic economy to working on the home front. This would include working in jobs that were previously held by men that were drafted to serve.
I do imagine that this poster was successful in communicating the need for changes in women’s roles
