EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "Young New Zealand," depicts a striking contrast between the old and the new as personified by John Bull and Young New Zealand. John Bull, a symbol of traditional British values, is shown riding an outdated penny farthing bicycle, with its large front wheel and small rear wheel. In contrast, Young New Zealand, representing the progressive spirit of New Zealand, rides a modern bicycle with equal-sized wheels. The year is circa 1909, a time when New Zealand was making history by becoming the first country in the world to grant women the right to vote. The illustration, created by the talented artist Joan Harvey Drew, powerfully conveys the theme of progress and the empowerment of women. The suffragette movement, which had been gaining momentum in New Zealand since the late 1800s, is reflected in the determined expression on Young New Zealand's face as she confidently rides her bicycle. The outdated penny farthing, with its unsteady and unwieldy design, symbolizes the outdated attitudes towards women's rights that were soon to be left behind. This image is a testament to the courage and determination of the suffragettes in New Zealand and their successful campaign for women's suffrage. It is a powerful reminder of the progress that has been made towards gender equality and the ongoing struggle for women's rights around the world.
