EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment in history during the Women's Coronation Procession of 1911. In this image, Annie Kenney and Constance Lytton stand side by side, representing the strength and determination of suffragettes fighting for women's right to vote. The procession took place just a week before George V's coronation, with over 50,000 women from various societies across the country marching together. Their goal was to gain support from the king for their cause - Votes for Women. Both Kenney and Lytton had already experienced imprisonment due to their militant actions as suffragettes. Annie Kenney can be seen wearing a rosette symbolizing her dedication to the movement, while Constance Lytton carries a shawl with grace and resilience. This photograph beautifully captures their commitment to achieving equal rights through peaceful protest. The suffragette movement was not only about enfranchisement but also about feminist ideals and civil rights. The phrase "deeds not words" became synonymous with their struggle as they fought against disenfranchisement and demanded equal rights for all women. This image serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave women who marched through London demanding emancipation. It is an important historical document that showcases both the unity and determination of those involved in this pivotal moment in British history.
