Why Not Go the Limit?
EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Scandalous Evening at Mrs. P.J. Gilligan's Saloon, 1908 This intriguing illustration, published in Puck magazine on March 18, 1908, captures the audacious spirit of a group of women who dared to defy societal norms and indulge in the pleasures of an after-hours gathering at the notorious Mrs. P.J. Gilligan's saloon. The cartoon, titled "Why Not Go the Limit?", offers a glimpse into a world where women, often confined to the domestic sphere, could momentarily escape the constraints of Victorian morality and revel in the company of their peers. The illustration portrays a lively scene inside the dimly lit bar, with women of various ages and social standings, clad in fashionable yet provocative attire, engaging in merriment and camaraderie. Some women are seen smoking cigarettes, a behavior that was considered taboo for women at the time, while others are sipping their drinks, their laughter and conversation filling the room. The overall atmosphere is one of liberation and rebellion, a stark contrast to the rigid expectations of the era. The title of the illustration, "Why Not Go the Limit?", suggests a challenge to the status quo and an invitation to embrace the forbidden. The image serves as a reminder of the complexities and contradictions of the late Victorian period, where the desire for freedom and self-expression coexisted uneasily with traditional values and societal expectations. This illustration, with its bold depiction of women's liberation and defiance, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and sheds light on the ongoing struggle for gender equality and the power of community and solidarity in challenging societal norms.
