Success in Life, 1867 - Role Reversal and the Modern Professional Woman
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by George du Maurier titled "Success in Life, 1867" we are transported back to a pivotal moment in history. The artist beautifully captures the concept of role reversal and the emergence of the modern professional woman during the 19th century. The central focus of the image is Elizabeth Garrett Anderson, a trailblazing figure who shattered societal norms by becoming one of the first licensed female doctors. As she pours tea for her young daughter at their dining room table, we witness a powerful symbol of empowerment and progress. Surrounded by toys and scientific instruments, Anderson effortlessly balances her responsibilities as both a physician and mother. This thought-provoking scene challenges traditional gender roles while highlighting women's liberation movements that were gaining momentum during this era. Du Maurier's satire cleverly portrays a society where men take on domestic duties as househusbands while women pursue careers traditionally reserved for men. Through his intricate engravings, he invites us to question societal expectations surrounding gender roles and advocates for sexual equality. This remarkable print serves as an important reminder of how far we have come in terms of women's rights and feminism. It also pays homage to courageous individuals like Elizabeth Garrett Anderson who paved the way for future generations seeking equal opportunities in all professions.
