Les Conseilleurs ne Sont Pas les Payeurs, 1943
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful print that captures the essence of French resistance during World War II. Created by Bedos et Cie Imprimeurs, this anti-Resistance poster was commissioned by the Vichy government in an attempt to discourage support for the resistance movement. The image portrays a rural scene, with a haystack set ablaze and flames engulfing the countryside. In the foreground stands a man, representing those who advise but do not bear the consequences of their actions. The vibrant colors used in this artwork intensify its impact, drawing attention to the urgency and gravity of wartime collaboration. This propaganda piece aimed to undermine regionalism and sabotage efforts against Vichy's rule. By depicting rural life disrupted by fire and destruction, it sought to instill fear among farmers and discourage them from supporting or participating in acts of resistance. Despite its intended purpose as government propaganda, "Les Conseilleurs ne Sont Pas les Payeurs" serves as a reminder of France's brave men and women who fought against occupation during one of history's darkest periods. It symbolizes their resilience and determination to protect their country's freedom at all costs. Today, this print stands as both an important historical artifact from World War II and a testament to human courage in times of adversity.
