EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ANTI-VACCINATION RIOT, 1885" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image captures the aftermath of a devastating smallpox epidemic that struck Montreal, Canada in 1885. In response to this deadly illness, French-Canadian adversaries of vaccination took to the streets and attacked City Hall. The wood engraving from a contemporary American newspaper showcases the exterior of City Hall as it stands amidst chaos and unrest. The architecture of the building is juxtaposed against the turmoil unfolding outside its walls. A mob of men can be seen venting their frustration and anger towards vaccination measures that were being implemented at the time. This powerful image serves as a reminder of how fear and misinformation can fuel public outrage during times of crisis. It highlights the tension between personal beliefs and public health initiatives, with anti-vaccination sentiments taking center stage. The Granger Collection's portrayal offers an intriguing glimpse into this historical event, providing viewers with an opportunity to reflect on past struggles while considering our present-day challenges surrounding vaccinations.
