EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the essence of Love's Bitter Potion or Dolly Pregnant, a powerful symbol of lost virginity. Inspired by a work by Boitard and featured in Illustrierte Sittengeschichte vom Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart by Eduard Fuchs, this image evokes themes of betrayal, treachery, and disappointment.
The scene depicts a young woman, Dolly, visibly pregnant and surrounded by farmboys who point and ridicule her. The stigma of lost virginity is palpable as she stands expectantly with an expression of both love and bitterness on her face.
The symbolism in this piece is profound - the eighteenth-century setting adds to the sense of societal expectations and norms being shattered. The contrast between the innocence of youth and the harsh reality of adulthood is starkly portrayed through Dolly's plight.
As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the consequences that come with betraying one's purity. The emotional weight carried by Dolly serves as a cautionary tale about the fragility of love and the dangers that lie in its wake.
In capturing this moment from history, Ken Welsh has brought to life a poignant reminder of how quickly fortunes can change when love turns sour.
