About the Item
This compelling original French political poster from 1947 features a striking portrait of General Charles de Gaulle, urging citizens to vote for the newly founded Rassemblement du Peuple Français (RPF)—the Rally of the French People.
Designed by M. Deguelche, the poster exudes gravitas and post-war patriotism. De Gaulle’s resolute expression is framed by the French tricolour and Croix de Lorraine, symbols of national identity and Free France, positioned behind him in soft yet powerful gradients. The slogan "Pour en sortir" ("To get out of it") speaks directly to the post-WWII hardships and the country’s desire for renewal and stability.
The bold text appeals to “Français, Françaises”, calling on men and women alike to support the lists of the RPF—a political movement created by de Gaulle in 1947 to promote strong national governance and reject the fragmentation of party politics that plagued the Fourth Republic.
At the bottom, de Gaulle’s name appears subtly but significantly, solidifying his iconic role in shaping modern France.
This poster is not only a fine example of postwar political propaganda but also a historical artifact capturing the mood of 1940s France, where de Gaulle’s legacy as a wartime leader transitioned into a controversial and charismatic political force.
Perfect for collectors of historical political memorabilia, French 20th-century history, or de Gaulle ephemera, this piece is a visually powerful testament to the role of graphic design in shaping public opinion during a critical era in French democracy.
