EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Swedish anti-Prohibition poster from 1922, titled "No! Crayfish require these drinks!". The image showcases a powerful message against the prohibition of alcohol during that time. The vibrant and colorful lithograph depicts a group of cheerful individuals gathered around a table adorned with delectable crayfish. Each person is seen raising their glasses in celebration, emphasizing the importance of alcoholic beverages in such social gatherings. The artist, Albert Engstrom, skillfully conveys his opposition to the proposed ban on alcohol through this striking visual. This historic piece reflects an era when Sweden was grappling with the idea of prohibiting alcohol consumption. It serves as a reminder that certain cultural traditions and social customs are deeply intertwined with specific beverages like fine wines or spirits. By highlighting crayfish as an essential element in Swedish cuisine and culture, Engstrom cleverly suggests that these culinary delights cannot be fully enjoyed without accompanying drinks. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable artwork not only represents an important moment in Swedish history but also stands as testament to the power of art in conveying political messages. Its enduring relevance lies in its ability to spark conversations about societal attitudes towards alcohol consumption and personal freedoms. As we admire this thought-provoking poster from 1922, it reminds us how far society has come since then while encouraging us to reflect on our own beliefs surrounding issues related to prohibition and individual liberties.
