Germany: 'Kampf fur die Sache' ('Fight for the Cause'). National Socialist pin-up style propaganda poster, c. 1933-1943

This Nazi pin-up poster is unusual in portraying a scantily-clad girl against the National Flag of the Third Reich. German Fascist art forbade 'degenerate' art forms (Entartete Kunst) and generally promoted art that was 'heroic and Germanic'.

Women were more usually portrayed as mothers or patriotic workers, Romantic themes were permitted, but generally not erotic.
