The Voice of Hope in the Dawn 1943

"The Voice of Hope in the Dawn" is a 1943 lithograph by Roderick Fletcher Mead. The artwork depicts a white rooster standing on a broken statue of a woman, with a background of ruined buildings, likely a commentary on the devastation of World War II. The rooster, symbolizing hope and new beginnings, stands over the ruins, suggesting a brighter future after the dark times. This artwork is an example of Mead's signature style, which often utilizes realistic imagery with symbolic undertones.
