This 1918 photograph captures the French Art Gallery within the Allied War Exposition, staged inside Cincinnati's Music Hall from December 14 to 22, 1918. Organized to bring the realities and achievements of the Allied war effort to American audiences, the traveling exposition combined captured war materiel with art, photography, and memorabilia. This gallery displayed drawings and paintings of military life, likely drawn from French sources, referencing Paris's Avenue Foch, named for the Allied Supreme Commander Marshal Ferdinand Foch. Over its brief run, the exposition drew more than 164,000 visitors from the Cincinnati region. Project: 218708
