EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "If a body meet a body, Comin through the rye. Cartoon (TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT, 1874)" from Granger Art on Demand takes us back to an era of social change and political activism. In this interior scene, we witness the consequences of excessive alcohol consumption in late 19th-century society. A group of men, dressed in top hats and formal attire, find themselves in a chaotic situation within a bustling bar. One man has broken into anger while clutching onto a bottle labeled "rye" symbolizing his intoxication and addiction to alcohol. The room is filled with barrels and bottles, serving as reminders of the prevalent issue at hand - alcoholism. Meanwhile, women are present in the background observing this spectacle with disapproval. Their presence signifies their involvement in the temperance movement - a campaign advocating for moderation or complete abstinence from alcoholic beverages. This cartoon-like depiction not only serves as entertainment but also sheds light on the political climate surrounding alcohol consumption during that time period. It captures both the allure and dangers associated with drinking excessively. Through this thought-provoking image by The Granger Collection, we are reminded of how societal attitudes towards alcohol have evolved over time and how movements like temperance played an important role in shaping our modern understanding of responsible drinking habits.
