EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures Angela, a trailblazing female politician in the aftermath of World War I, as she confidently shares Abdulla cigarettes with her fellow Members of Parliament in the House of Commons. Dressed in a stylish suit and hat, Angela exudes an air of authority and poise, reflecting the groundbreaking strides she made in breaking the male-dominated political landscape of the time. Illustrated by the renowned artist Annie Fish, this advertisement for Abdulla Cigarettes is a testament to the growing cultural acceptance of women in politics during the early 20th century. The setting of the House of Commons, with its ornate architecture and the iconic green benches, adds to the historical significance of the scene. Angela's presence in the House of Commons was a powerful symbol of change, as she became one of the first female Members of Parliament (MPs) in the United Kingdom. Her election as a candidate marked a turning point in the political history of the country, paving the way for future generations of women to make their mark in the political arena. The act of sharing Abdulla cigarettes among her colleagues further underscores Angela's charisma and ability to connect with her peers, as well as her unwavering confidence in her role as an MP. The image also serves as a reminder of the social norms of the time, when smoking was a common practice in political and social settings. This advertisement not only showcases the political career of Angela, but also highlights the important role of Abdulla Cigarettes in documenting and celebrating the historical milestones of the post-WW1 era. The collaboration between Annie Fish and Abdulla Cigarettes resulted in a series of powerful and evocative images that continue to capture the imagination of audiences today.
