EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "A 'Bisley' in the Colonies, the Ladies Bermuda Rifle Association" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist during the 19th century, this print showcases a group of determined women from the Ladies Bermuda Rifle Association participating in a shooting competition. The image transports us to a time when gender roles were rigidly defined, and it was uncommon for women to engage in such activities. However, these courageous ladies defied societal norms and showcased their skills with rifles at this prestigious event. The composition captures the intensity of the competition as each woman focuses on her target with unwavering determination. The attention to detail is remarkable; you can almost feel their concentration and hear the echoes of gunshots reverberating through the air. Published in The Graphic on August 1st, 1891, this engraving provides us with a glimpse into an era where women's empowerment was beginning to take shape. It serves as a testament to their resilience and ambition, breaking barriers that restricted them from pursuing their passions. This historical artwork not only celebrates these trailblazing women but also reminds us of how far we have come in terms of gender equality. It stands as an inspiration for future generations who continue fighting for equal opportunities regardless of gender or background.
