EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage Punch cartoon print titled "Why Shouldn't Girton Rink. When Cambridge Rows?" captures the satirical humor of George Du Maurier, published in Punch magazine in 1876. The illustration depicts a scene where students from Girton College and Cambridge University engage in different leisure activities along the riverbank. The cartoon playfully questions why female students from Girton College should not enjoy roller skating on the rink while their male counterparts row on the river. It reflects the gender norms and expectations prevalent during Victorian times, highlighting the disparity between men's and women's recreational opportunities. Du Maurier's caricature style adds to the humorous tone of this artwork, with exaggerated figures showcasing fashionable dresses and roller skates. The inclusion of a tugboat symbolizes transportation as an essential aspect of daily life. This piece offers insights into British society at that time, emphasizing social dynamics within educational institutions like Cambridge University and shedding light on prevailing attitudes towards gender roles. As part of Fine Art Finder's collection, this engraving serves as a historical document capturing both entertainment value and societal commentary. It reminds us how far we have come in terms of gender equality while also providing an opportunity for reflection on our progress as a society.
