Golden Eyes with Uncle Sam. Created by Nell Brinkley in 1918 in watercolor, ink, gouache, and opaque white over graphite underdrawing. Illustration shows a young woman, "Golden Eyes," dressed in a khaki-colored dress and cap standing with a collie dog named Uncle Sam who holds a "Liberty bond" on his collar. A nude kewpie-like figure bangs a drum lower left. Their act of patriotism supported American soldiers during World War I.
