EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT. Recruited From Our Homes, temperance trade card: wood engraving, c. 1915" takes us back to early 20th century America and sheds light on a significant social movement of that time - the Temperance Movement. The wood engraving depicts a powerful scene filled with symbolism and political undertones. In this thought-provoking image, we see men from various walks of life standing united against alcoholism. They are portrayed as strong-willed individuals who have been recruited from their own homes to join the cause of temperance. Their determined expressions convey a sense of purpose and conviction in their fight against the destructive effects of alcohol. The bartender in the background serves as a stark contrast to these resolute men, representing the influence that society believed bartenders had over promoting excessive drinking. This visual juxtaposition highlights the struggle between those advocating for sobriety and those profiting from alcohol sales. Created around 1915, during an era when prohibition was gaining momentum across America, this wood engraving captures both the spirit and essence of the Temperance Movement's political acts aimed at curbing alcohol consumption. As we reflect upon this historic image today, it serves as a reminder of how societal attitudes towards alcohol have evolved over time and how movements like temperance played a crucial role in shaping public opinion on such matters.
