EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating chromolitho print titled "Misogyny: scene at a post office" takes us back to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the historical attitudes towards women. This comical yet thought-provoking artwork, part of a private collection, depicts a bustling post office with men queuing up at the counter. The artist cleverly captures the prevalent misogyny of that era through subtle details. Amidst the security grille and postal orders being exchanged, it becomes evident that this scene is not just about mailing letters. The workers behind the counter are seen engaging in insulting behavior towards their female customers, highlighting deep-rooted gender biases. It serves as a reminder of how women were often subjected to derogatory treatment in public spaces during those times. Despite its serious undertones, there is an element of humor infused throughout this print. The comic portrayal adds an entertaining touch while shedding light on societal issues that were once considered acceptable or even amusing. This artwork from Bridgeman Images invites us to reflect upon our progress as a society and appreciate how far we have come in terms of gender equality. It also serves as a reminder to continue challenging and dismantling harmful stereotypes that still persist today.
