Depan Belakang Berdjoang!
A propaganda poster created by Poesat Tenaga Peloekis Indonesia (P.T.P.I) in 1947 during the Dutch colonial war portrays a soldier holding a gun, a farmer holding a sickle, a writer holding a pen, a health worker holding an injection, and a man holding a broom, along with the text, "Depan Belakang Berdjoang!" meaning “Fighting Front and Back!”. This symbolizes the spirit of people's defense and resistance. The poster is part of a scrapbook titled "We Struggle with Posters (P.T.P.I.)", containing reduced reproductions of P.T.P.I. posters from 1945-1947, addressing Indonesian and global issues.
