The Pride Month Lettering 00011-Gentleman Jack
Tuesday, June 11, 2024
Gentleman Jack is a captivating show that shines a spotlight on the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ people in the 19th century, drawing from the real-life diaries of Anne Lister, an English landowner, and a butch lesbian.
The series does an excellent job of highlighting the legal and social barriers they had to overcome, while also showcasing their courage and resilience. One of the moments for me was when Anne Lister confidently strutted through the streets of Yorkshire.
The show portrays the relationship between Anne Lister and Ann Walker beautifully, capturing the intensity of their love in an era where it was condemned.
In the spirit of Pride Month, I created a special lettering piece to honor their love and celebrate their story.
