EDITORS COMMENTS
When Women Work," a captivating movie poster from 1921, showcases the evolving role of women in the workforce during a pivotal moment in American history. Created by an anonymous artist for the Women's Bureau of the U.S. Department of Labor, this vibrant color lithography image embodies the spirit of emancipation and the feminist movement. The poster's central figure is a determined woman, clad in a modern work dress, her gaze fixed on the horizon with unwavering resolve. She holds a briefcase in one hand and a baby in the other, symbolizing the dual roles women were expected to balance: caregiver and breadwinner. Surrounding her are various images of women from diverse backgrounds, all engaged in various professions, from teaching and nursing to manufacturing and agriculture. This powerful poster reflects the growing momentum of the suffrage movement, which sought to secure women's right to vote. The Women's Bureau, established in 1910, played a crucial role in advocating for women's employment opportunities and fair wages. The poster's creation and distribution served to further promote the message that women's work was valuable and essential to the nation's progress. "When Women Work" is a testament to the historical significance of the suffrage movement and the broader feminist movement, which paved the way for women's greater participation in the workforce and the political sphere. This rare and captivating piece of fine art serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for gender equality and the progress that has been made over the past century. This poster is part of a private collection and is an excellent example of social and political graphic design from the early 20th century. Its rich colors and dynamic composition make it a striking addition to any collection of historical posters or feminist art.
