EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the "Award of Five Guineas for 'New Woman' Drawing Prize". Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this engraving now resides in a private collection. The image itself is an illustration for The Picture Magazine from 1895. The award ceremony depicted here symbolizes a turning point in society, as it recognizes the emergence of the "New Woman" movement. This groundbreaking concept challenged traditional gender roles and celebrated female empowerment. Bursting with youthful energy, the sweet seventeen recipient stands proudly among her peers, adorned with distinction and pride. The historical significance of this drawing prize cannot be overstated. It represents not only a reward for artistic talent but also serves as a chrysalis moment for women's liberation. The five guineas bestowed upon the winner act as both tangible recognition and symbolic encouragement to continue breaking barriers. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are reminded that progress often comes at great cost and effort. The New Woman movement paved the way for future generations to challenge societal norms and strive for equality. Let us honor those who dared to dream differently and celebrate their achievements through images like these – reminders of our shared history and ongoing journey towards true emancipation.
