This poster shows three black-and-white figures standing side by side against a dark background. Their faces are blurred, but their bodies are filled with bold, white text. The left figure says things like “We call for a just peace in our land.” The middle one talks about “freedom of conscience.” The right one protests “conscription.” Small images of war scenes appear at the bottom of each figure. The text is arranged like a speech, almost like the figures are speaking out together. The poster looks simple but packs a strong message against war and forced military service. If you like this style, check out the End Conscription Campaign (ECC).
