Description
Advertisement for the London Underground for suburbanites.
There’s something almost heroic about the towering silhouette and stoic facial expression of Dora Batty’s suburban shopper — suggesting a fortitude the woman will need if she does indeed intend to commute home carrying three parcels and an umbrella.
Perhaps this is how the artist emphasized the devotion that women show for their family.
Artist — Dora M. Batty.
