EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "WOMANs HOLY WAR, 1874. Grand Charge on the Enemys Works" is a powerful representation of the temperance movement that swept across America in the late 19th century. Created by Currier & Ives in 1874, this print serves as both a poster and a means of communication for this influential political and social movement. The image depicts an equestrian charge led by a fearless horsewoman at its forefront. With determination etched on her face, she symbolizes the women who fought against alcoholism and its devastating effects on society. The text accompanying the lithograph emphasizes the holy nature of their mission, highlighting their unwavering commitment to eradicate whisky and rum from people's lives. Nathaniel Currier and James Merritt Ives, renowned for their skillful lithography work during this era, have masterfully captured the intensity of this battle against alcohol consumption. The composition showcases intricate details such as charging horses and determined riders amidst smoke-filled surroundings. This lithograph stands as a testament to not only the artistic prowess of Currier & Ives but also to the significance of women's involvement in shaping societal change during that time period. It serves as a reminder of how political movements can be fueled by passion and dedication towards creating a better world for all.
