EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a woman lawyer in the early 20th century. With her beautiful face and confident demeanor, she pleads and defends her client with unwavering patience. Dressed in the attire specific to her profession, she represents the groundbreaking progress made by women in the field of law. In France, where this image originates from, women were only allowed to practice law starting from December 1900. This cartoon advertisement by Albert Guillaume, published around 1902 or 1903, celebrates this milestone while promoting Ricqles mint alcohol as a source of courage and energy for speakers like her. The presence of a bottle of Ricqles mint alcohol in front of the lawyer symbolizes how even professionals require an extra boost when it comes to public speaking or facing challenging situations. The drops added to water were believed to provide that necessary confidence. This image not only highlights justice and the legal profession but also touches upon themes such as gender equality, feminism, emancipation, and parity. It serves as a reminder of how far women have come in their fight for equal rights and opportunities within various industries. Overall, this print is not just about advertising a product; it encapsulates an important moment in history when barriers were broken down and showcases the strength and determination displayed by women lawyers during that time period.
