EDITORS COMMENTS
The powerful image captures a moment of determination and conviction. In the photograph, a woman stands tall, her gaze fixed on something beyond the frame. Her words echo with strength as she declares, "I'm not here to beg for her" emphasizing her refusal to plead or compromise. Instead, she fights for something greater - depicted in the engraving before her. The Temperance picture is an emblem of resistance against alcohol's destructive influence. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, it portrays a scene from The British Workman publication around 1880. This loose illustration serves as a visual call-to-action within its pages. In this historical context, where pubs and public houses were common fixtures of society, this woman takes responsibility for herself and others. She embodies innocence and purity amidst a world tainted by booze and excess drinking. As we delve into the details of the print, we notice that nestled within its narrative lies another significant element - a baby. Symbolizing new beginnings and hope for future generations, this newborn represents both vulnerability and potential. This print evokes emotions ranging from admiration to introspection. It reminds us that even in challenging times when societal norms may tempt us towards harmful habits or behaviors, there are individuals who rise above them with unwavering determination. Through this image captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are encouraged to reflect on our own choices while acknowledging the power each person holds to make positive change – not just for themselves but also for those
