EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorful lithograph captures a controversial scene from the early 20th century. Titled "Man waiting to smack a woman's bottom while she watches the yacht racing" it depicts an unsettling act of sexual assault disguised as humor. The image shows a man eagerly anticipating the opportunity to touch a woman's bottom, while she innocently observes yacht racing in the background. The postcard, part of a private collection, reflects the prevailing attitudes and social norms of that era. It is important to note that this artwork perpetuates misogyny and inappropriate behavior towards women. In today's context, such actions would be considered completely unacceptable and fall under the umbrella of sexual assault. The image serves as a stark reminder of how far society has progressed in terms of gender equality and respect for personal boundaries. It also highlights the ongoing struggle against harassment faced by many women around the world. While this lithograph may have been intended as humorous at its time of creation, it now stands as an uncomfortable relic from history. Its inclusion in art collections allows us to reflect on past societal attitudes and serves as a catalyst for discussions about consent, appropriate behavior, and gender equality.
