EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "WOMENs RIGHTS CARTOON. The Apotheosis of Liberty" takes us back to the late 19th century, a pivotal time in American history for women's rights. Created by George Y. Coffin in 1896, this American cartoon showcases two iconic figures of the suffrage movement: Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. The image depicts these fierce advocates elevated to the status of national heroes, placed alongside President George Washington in what appears to be a heavenly setting. Symbolism abounds as rays of sunlight illuminate their faces, representing the enlightenment brought about by their tireless efforts. Intriguing details can be found throughout the artwork - from an axe symbolizing political action to a horn signifying progress and change. Fasces, a bundle of rods with an axe blade protruding from it, further emphasizes their fight for justice. This powerful piece captures not only the spirit of feminism at that time but also serves as a reminder of how far we have come on our journey towards gender equality. It stands as a testament to those who paved the way for future generations and continues to inspire us today. Whether displayed in homes or public spaces, this print is sure to spark conversations about women's rights movements past and present while honoring those who fought tirelessly for equal rights during turn-of-the-century America.
