The Scold

from €100.00

In the early modern period (1500-1800), women challenging societal norms faced severe persecution, notably through witch hunts and public shaming.

The so called "scolds" were humiliated using devices like the ducking stool and scold's bridle. Accused witches, often older and marginalised women, were tried unfairly and executed publicly. Despite the oppressive, patriarchal society and religious influence, some women resisted, sowing the seeds of early feminist thought and highlighting the ongoing struggle for gender equality.

Limited edition of 50 in each size.
Each print comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Giclée art print on Hahnemühle German Etching

This heavyweight paper has a slightly warm base tone and a strong mottled texture. It creates a print with strong colours and deep blacks that feels rich and high in contrast. Hahnemüle German Etching is a robust Giclée paper, meaning it doesn’t tend to fray as much at the edges.
