Om författaren
James Montgomery Flagg was a prominent American illustrator and painter, best known for his iconic recruitment poster featuring Uncle Sam with the phrase 'I Want You.' Born in 1877, Flagg's artistic talents emerged early, and by the age of 12, he was already contributing illustrations to magazines. His career flourished during the early 20th century, particularly during World War I, when his patriotic artwork became synonymous with American nationalism. Flagg's work not only captured the spirit of the times but also influenced the visual culture of the era.
