EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 10 of 12: The Drunkard Having Signed the Pledge Goes with His Family to Church, by Cruikshank, 1868, is a powerful and poignant image that encapsulates the Victorian era's moralizing crusade against intemperance and the importance of religion and family values in British society during the 1860s. The print depicts a formerly drunken man, now sober, holding the hand of his wife and leading his children to church. The man's transformation is evident in his neatly dressed appearance, contrasting sharply with his disheveled and inebriated state in earlier plates of Cruikshank's series. His wife, dressed in her Sunday best, looks proudly at her husband, while their children follow obediently behind. The background of the print shows a bustling gin shop, with its enticing signs and bottles, serving as a stark reminder of the man's former life. The shopkeeper, with a knowing smile, looks on approvingly at the family's departure, symbolizing the triumph of the temperance movement over the destructive influence of alcohol. The religious theme of the print is further emphasized by the church in the background, with its steeple reaching towards the heavens, representing the redemptive power of Christianity and the promise of a better life for the reformed drunkard and his family. This image serves as a powerful reminder of the Victorian era's emphasis on morals, religion, and family values, and the importance of overcoming personal struggles and vices through perseverance and the support of loved ones.
