EDITORS COMMENTS
The Age of Brass or the Triumph of Women's Rights is a lithograph cartoon satire created in 1869 by Currier & Ives. This artwork, filled with symbolism and wit, captures the essence of the women's rights movement during that time. In this image, we see a bustling scene set in middle America. A group of determined women proudly march forward, holding banners advocating for their right to vote and be heard. They are adorned in fashionable attire, carrying parasols as symbols of their femininity and strength. Amidst the crowd stands a woman smoking a cigarette, challenging societal norms and asserting her independence. This rebellious act further emphasizes the spirit of feminism present throughout the piece. The cartoon also highlights Nathaniel Merritt's role as president of The Democratic System - an organization dedicated to promoting equality for women. His presence signifies male support for women's rights during this pivotal era. Created by James Ives and Nathaniel Currier - renowned artists known for their iconic prints - this lithograph serves as both social commentary and historical documentation. It encapsulates the struggles faced by women seeking equal rights while also celebrating their triumphs. This thought-provoking print reminds us of how far we have come in terms of gender equality while encouraging us to continue fighting for progress even today.
