The Angel in The House; or the Result of Female Suffrage, 1884
The Angel in The House; or the Result of Female Suffrage, 1884. A lady who has taken advantage of Female Suffrage is on her feet in a manly stance in the House of Commons. She has laid her knitting aside. Though this is a female pursuit, she is knitting a blue-stocking, a contemporary and unflattering term for women educated beyond their station. The Angel in the House is a satirical reference to Coventry Patmores famous poem of that name, but which dwells lovingly on the ideal of woman in the home and the domestic bliss that that brings. From Punch, or the London Charivari, June 14, 1884
