PARKER - DIVORCE, 1920. Our Great American Sport
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from Vanity Fair magazine takes us back to the early years of the Jazz Age in America. Published in January 1920, it offers a satirical commentary on the rising divorce rate that was sweeping across the United States during this time. With witty and thought-provoking text by Dorothy Parker and whimsical illustrations by Fish, this page captures the essence of an era marked by social change and shifting values. The image depicts a stylish couple at a bustling railroad station in Reno, Nevada - famously known as the "Divorce Capital" due to its lenient laws. The woman stands confidently in her fashionable fur coat and hat, while her husband dons a dapper tuxedo. They are surrounded by luggage symbolizing their journey towards separation. Cupid himself appears amusedly overhead, highlighting how love has become entangled with legal proceedings. Through clever use of typeface and political cartoons, this piece reflects society's fascination with divorce as if it were a spectator sport - hence its title "Our Great American Sport". It serves as both a critique and celebration of changing societal norms during an era when women were gaining more independence and challenging traditional gender roles. This print is not just an artistic representation; it encapsulates an important moment in history where personal freedom clashed with societal expectations. It reminds us that even amidst glamourous fashion trends and cultural shifts, human relationships remain complex terrain to navigate.
