Domestic Life Father Garden Laundry Mother Washing
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The Fullmans" we are introduced to a family that challenges traditional gender roles. From left to right, we see Peter, Jody aged two, and breadwinner Mum Paula. Society has long dictated that men should go out to work while women stay at home with the children. However, times are changing rapidly, and this family is a shining example of breaking free from societal norms. Peter, despite being a qualified architect, takes on the responsibilities typically associated with motherhood. He fearlessly tackles housework and cares for their baby while his wife Paula goes out every day as a TV script writer to support their family financially. This image was captured in March 1979 when such role reversals were far less common than they are today. The photograph portrays Peter engaged in domestic tasks like laundry and washing while also tending to the garden. It beautifully captures the essence of modern-day fatherhood - one filled with love, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to nurturing both his child and their home. "The Fullmans" serves as a powerful reminder that families come in all shapes and sizes; there is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to parenting or providing for loved ones. This timeless image celebrates progressiveness within society by showcasing how individuals can defy tradition without compromising love or happiness within their family unit.
