Описание: Banners at the "People Power - Fighting For Peace" Exhibition in the Imperial War Museum, London. Description below reproduced from the Imperial War Museum website. "After the horrors of the First World War, there was widespread anti-war sentiment in Britain. Peace campaigning became increasingly popular and new groups were formed. This painted textile banner was produced for the Kindred of the Kibbo Kift, a movement founded in 1920. The group was created by John Hargrave, an eccentric but charismatic leader inspired by a less militaristic interpretation of the scouting movement. It encouraged young people to get involved in outdoor activities, such as hiking, handicraft and camping, as well as promoting a message of world peace. This banner was made for the Women’s Peacemakers Pilgrimage, which culminated in 10,000 people gathering in London’s Hyde Park on 19 June 1926."
