Quoth the Raven Nevermore - A 1930s Encounter between Woman and Raven

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 1937 photograph by David Duggin, a woman dressed in a sunny yellow jumper and sporting a stylish waved bob communicates with a friendly raven. The title of the image, "Quoth the Raven Nevermore," pays homage to the famous poem by Edgar Allan Poe. The woman's fashionable attire and the moody, spotlit setting add to the intrigue of this unique encounter. The 1930s, also known as the thirties or the Great Depression era, was a time of innovation and transformation in fashion. This woman's yellow jumper, a bold and cheerful choice, stands out against the dark, moody backdrop, creating a striking contrast. The raven, with its dark, glossy feathers and piercing eyes, gazes intently at the woman, as if engaged in a deep conversation. Ravens, often associated with mystery and the unknown, were popular pets during this era, and this friendly bird seems to be no exception. The title of the image, "Quoth the Raven Nevermore," is a reference to one of the most famous lines from Poe's poem, "The Raven." The line, "Quoth the Raven 'Nevermore,'" is spoken by the raven as it perches on a bust of Poe, repeating the word "nevermore" in response to the narrator's questions about the future. This photograph, with its unique blend of fashion, mood, and mystery, offers a glimpse into the past and the fascination with ravens and the poetry of Edgar Allan Poe that endured throughout the 1930s.
