EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant illustration by John Held Jr. , created in 1925. This powerful image captures the harsh reality of early American life during the era of prohibition. The scene depicts a young girl standing outside a dimly lit bar, her face filled with desperation and sadness as she pleads for her father's return. Held's cartoon-like style adds an element of irony to this somber portrayal of poverty and alcoholism. The father figure, depicted as an intoxicated man inside the bar, represents the destructive nature of addiction and its impact on families. It serves as a reminder that even in times of entertainment and speakeasies, there were those who suffered greatly from alcoholism. The daughter's expression reflects both love and disappointment; she longs for her father to come home but knows deep down that he may never change his ways. This illustration speaks volumes about the struggles faced by countless families during this tumultuous period in American history. Through this artwork, Held sheds light on the devastating consequences of alcohol abuse while also highlighting societal issues such as poverty and gender roles. "Father Dear Father, Come Home With Me Now" serves as a powerful reminder that behind every statistic lies real people with real stories - ones that deserve our empathy and understanding.
