WOMEN's RIGHTS, 1915 - Progress and Satire
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a satirical American cartoon comment from 1915 by Alanson Burton Walker, shedding light on the perceived progress of women's rights since Puritan times. The image is a fascinating depiction of the supposed strides made by women in America. In this thought-provoking artwork, we see an early English colonist woman seated comfortably in a chair with her footstool while reading a liberated magazine. She boldly smokes a cigarette, challenging societal norms and expectations. Her fashionable attire includes bloomers and a bonnet that symbolize the changing fashion trends embraced by women during this era. The cartoon cleverly incorporates elements such as an open Bible and Christian symbolism to highlight the clash between traditional values and emerging feminist ideals. It also features an alcohol glass, suggesting newfound independence for women beyond their domestic roles. Alanson Burton Walker skillfully uses satire to provoke contemplation about gender equality and political action at that time. This piece serves as both social commentary on the evolving role of women in society and as historical documentation of attitudes towards feminism in early 20th-century America. Granger Art on Demand presents this remarkable print from their collection, allowing us to reflect upon our past struggles for gender equality while celebrating how far we have come.
