EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia photo captures a significant moment in history as it shows Emmeline Pankhurst and Christabel Pankhurst hiding in the roof garden at Clement's Inn on 12th October 1908. The English photographer, whose identity remains unknown, beautifully captured this clandestine scene. Emmeline Pankhurst (1858-1928) and her daughter Christabel Pankhurst (1880-1958) sought refuge in this hidden spot after the police issued a summons for them due to their distribution of a pamphlet advocating for suffrage rights and supporting a rush of the House of Commons. This image serves as a testament to their courage and determination during the suffragette movement. The two women are seen standing on a balcony overlooking the cityscape, with an air of defiance mixed with apprehension visible on their faces. They were undoubtedly aware of the risks they faced but remained resolute in their fight for equality. This photograph is part of The Stapleton Collection, housed within a private collection today. It offers us an intimate glimpse into this pivotal moment when these remarkable women had to hide from authorities while continuing their fight for justice. As we reflect upon this image, let us remember the bravery and sacrifices made by countless individuals like Emmeline and Christabel Pankhurst who paved the way for gender equality that we enjoy today. Their legacy continues to inspire generations around the world striving for equal rights and social progress.
