EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, published in Puck magazine on June 4, 1913, presents an intriguing and thought-provoking portrayal of the feminine aspects of the Jekyll and Hyde dichotomy during the height of the women's suffrage movement in the United States. The image juxtaposes two distinct personas: a poised and determined woman, embodying the ideals of the Woman Suffrage movement, and an enraged hag, symbolizing Militant Lawlessness. The serene woman, proudly holding aloft the Woman Suffrage flag, represents the civilized and rational side of the women's struggle for the right to vote. Her calm demeanor and unwavering commitment to the cause are evident in her focused gaze and the peaceful expression on her face. However, lurking behind her, the hag, labeled Militant Lawlessness, is a stark contrast. Her Medusa-like visage, with wide-open eyes and an open, snarling mouth, exudes anger and chaos. This militant figure, armed with a bomb and a torch, symbolizes the more radical and destructive elements of the suffrage movement. The smoke billowing from the torch and the label "Arson" further emphasize the potential for violence and destruction. The illustration, created by an unknown artist, masterfully captures the complexities and tensions of the women's suffrage movement during this pivotal period in American history. It serves as a powerful reminder of the dual nature of the struggle for women's rights – the need for both peaceful activism and the willingness to challenge the status quo through more radical means. This and thought-provoking image is a testament to the enduring power of art to reflect and shape our understanding of historical events and the complex human emotions that drive them.
