EDITORS COMMENTS
The lithograph "TEMPERANCE, 1877. The temperance sermon" captures a pivotal moment in American history during the late 19th century. This artistic masterpiece, created by an anonymous American artist in 1877, serves as a satirical commentary on the temperance movement that was gaining momentum at the time. In this thought-provoking image, we see a crowded gathering of individuals from various walks of life attentively listening to a passionate speaker delivering a temperance sermon. The scene is set against the backdrop of nature, symbolizing the harmony and balance that proponents of temperance sought to achieve. One peculiar element in this lithograph is the presence of a feline figure sitting among the audience. This cat represents both curiosity and skepticism towards the ideas being presented, adding an additional layer of satire to the artwork. Through this powerful visual representation, we are reminded of how communication and persuasion played crucial roles in shaping political movements like temperance during this era. It highlights America's ongoing struggle with alcohol consumption and its societal consequences. "TEMPERANCE, 1877. The temperance sermon" stands as an important historical artifact that not only showcases artistic concepts but also provides insights into social issues prevalent at that time. Its timeless message continues to resonate today as we reflect on our own relationship with vices and strive for moderation in all aspects of life.
