Halt the Hun" was one of many posters issued by
the U.S. government during World War I to
encourage support of the war. This poster was
illustrated by Henry Raleigh in 1918. This poster
shows the heroic action of an American soldier
holding his arm out to prevent a German soldier from
hurting a helpless woman and child. The woman and
child are dressed in black and are shovn looking up
at the American soldier for refuge. Raleigh's use of
imagery in this painting is significant as he shows the
destruction the Germans have caused. There is fire
surrounding them, indicating the destruction the
Germans have already caused. The disdain for the
German influence is also shown as the German
soldier's face is covered and he appears hunched
over in comparison to the young, strong American
soldier.
