The image is being used for article Christian Democracy (Italy), a now defunct political party, and is used based on fair use of an image, specifically in reference to point 4 "Other promotional material: Posters, programs, billboards, ads. For critical commentary."  GUÐSÞEGN  – UTEX – 03:04, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

FAIR USE RATIONALE: The current caption on the picture gives critique of the image, specifically saying "Propaganda posters of the DC: they described to potential voters the party's commitment to anti-communism (in the left poster), traditionalism (in the centre poster), and family values (in the right poster). Note the use of symbols, especially lady liberty (representing the DC party) protecting the people from the Communist hammer-and-sickle symbol being used as a weapon in the left poster." This critique satisfies the criterion for fair use rationale. GUÐSÞEGN – UTEX – 03:16, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

A series of posters for the Italian Christian Democracy through its history.


 * In the leftmost poster, a famous poster from 1948, where a lady representing Italy is protected by a crossed shield (the symbol of the Christian Democracy) from a thrown hammer and sickle, representing the popular front of the communist and socialist parties. The poster reads "DIFENDETEMI! (Defend Me!), while the values written on the left in the small tricolor are "PATRIA, FAMIGLIA, LIBERTA`" (Fatherland, Family, Liberty).
 * In the central one, a commemorative poster for DC's 20 years. Photo of a young girl; below, "la DC ha 20 anni" (the DC is 20 years old).
 * In the rightmost poster, a child says "mamma e papa` VOTANO PER ME" (mummy and daddy vote for me).
