The Greatest Mother in the World/Red Cross ARTIST: A E Foringer Alonzo Earl Foringer was a mural painter and illustrator. Born in Kaylor, Amstrong County Pennsylvania on February 1, 1878. Mr. Foringer was a student of H.S. Stevenson in Pittsburgh, Blashfield and Mobrey in New York. This poster has been cited by both military and feminist writers - clearly for different reasons! - and is the image most closely associated with the artist. In a very pale palette Foringer manages to convey many of the same emotions which French artists and posterists of the same time period were capable of. Originally produced in 1918, we believe this poster is from a later printing, probably in the ''20''s or ''30s. This is a classic image and is in many museum collections as well as in the Red Cross collection of posters. Signed in the bottom right hand corner. Professionally linen backed, purchased in Europe, this poster measures 28 x 41 inches, and sells for $900. PLEASE NOTE: ALL OF OUR POSTERS ARE ORIGINAL, NON REPRODUCTION, VINTAGE PIECES.
