The image is a poster featuring a combination of visual art and a poetic text. The upper part of the poster contains a sketch-like illustration by Ben Shahn. This drawing depicts a group of abstract, faceless figures standing together, suggesting a sense of unity or common purpose, possibly in a context related to conflict or war given the accompanying text. Beneath the illustration, a passage from “The War Prayer” by Mark Twain is printed in a formal, serif font. The text is a solemn, poignant prayer that begins by urging the Lord to support young patriots in battle and continues with a series of increasingly grim and ironic implorations for divine assistance in the horrors of war, like tearing soldiers to shreds and feeling the pang of loss for those left behind. The prayer ends with a fervent plea for love, humility, and peace, recognizing the bitter reality of war. The bottom section features information about the Messages for Peace initiative. It highlights that contributions support the publication and dissemination of peaceful messages. Listed are members of the Executive Committee and text about how to contribute to the Messages for Peace organization. The overall design presents a powerful juxtaposition of stark visual art and somber literary content to convey a strong anti-war message and promote peace.

The image displays a piece of printed material that combines both illustration and text elements. At the top, there's a black and white sketch of a row of faceless people standing side by side, each figure drawn with rough, scribbled lines that suggest movement or hasty formation. The figures appear to resemble soldiers or individuals representing a unified group, although details are minimalistic, reinforcing the facelessness or anonymity of the group. Below the illustration, there's a block of text. It begins with a quote, formatted as a prayer, that starts with "O Lord our Father, our young patriots, idols of our hearts, go forth to battle – Be Thou near them!" and continues in a similar narrative, invoking vivid imagery and requesting divine support in the dire circumstances of battle. The prayer speaks of the hardships of war, imploring for various forms of aid, and ends with "Amen." At the bottom of this text, it is credited as "FROM 'THE WAR PRAYER' BY MARK TWAIN." Underneath this excerpt, additional text provides context to the image, titled "Messages for Peace." It explains that the document is part of a series of messages for peace and that all contributions made from it will be used solely for the publication and dissemination of such messages. A section titled "Executive Committee" lists several names, likely the individuals responsible for the initiative. At the very bottom of the image, there's a coupon that could perhaps be cut out and sent for inquiries or to make a donation to the "Messages for Peace Pennsylvania Branch" as indicated by the address provided.

This image shows a powerful anti-war piece featuring both artwork and text. At the top is a stark black ink drawing showing a group of simplified human figures standing close together, rendered in an abstract, minimalist style using bold strokes. The figures appear to be soldiers or a crowd, drawn by Ben Shahn. Below the illustration is Mark Twain's "The War Prayer," a deeply satirical and dark text that exposes the brutal reality behind patriotic war prayers. The prayer ironically asks for divine blessing while explicitly describing the horrific consequences of war - destruction of homes, killing of soldiers, creation of widows and orphans, and widespread suffering. At the bottom of the image is information about "Messages for Peace," appearing to be part of a series of anti-war publications, with what looks like a donation form or response card. The layout and style suggests this is likely from the mid-20th century, possibly during the Vietnam War era, when anti-war messages were particularly prevalent. The combination of the stark illustration and Twain's powerful text creates a striking statement against the horrors and hypocrisy of war.

The image shows a drawing by Ben Shahn titled "From 'The War Prayer' by Mark Twain". It depicts a group of people, likely soldiers, standing together. The drawing style is sketchy and expressive, using primarily black lines against a light background. Below the drawing is the text of "The War Prayer" by Mark Twain, which appears to be a plea to God on behalf of soldiers going into battle. The prayer asks for aid and comfort for the soldiers as they face hardship, hunger, injury and potentially death. At the bottom is a form titled "Messages for Peace" from the Executive Committee of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. It provides space for people to write messages for peace to be sent to the publication. Overall, the image juxtaposes the harsh realities faced by soldiers at war with a call for peace, presenting Twain's poignant words alongside Shahn's emotionally charged illustration. The combination conveys a powerful anti-war sentiment.
