The suffrage movement, also known as the fight for votes for women, was a pivotal moment in history that spanned from 1911 to 1913. This movement aimed to secure equal voting rights for women and played a crucial role in shaping gender equality worldwide. Bertha Margaret Boye, an artist during this time, captured the essence of the suffrage movement through her artwork. Her piece depicts strong and determined women standing together, demanding their right to vote. Mary Eleanor Gawthorpe, another influential figure in this movement, is seen in a black and white photograph taken around 1909. Her fierce expression reflects her dedication and passion towards achieving equality. Ida Bell Wells-Barnett was not only a leader in civil rights but also actively fought for women's suffrage. Her contributions were instrumental in advancing both racial and gender equality. Lydia Becker's oil on canvas portrait showcases her as a prominent figure within the suffrage movement. Through her work as an activist and writer, she inspired countless others to join the cause. Susan B. Anthony was one of the most well-known suffragists of her time. In two separate photographs from 1890 and 1900 respectively, she exudes determination while advocating for women's right to vote. Alice Paul made significant strides towards achieving gender equality with her tireless efforts during this period. A powerful black-and-white photograph captures her unwavering commitment to securing voting rights for all women. An engraving titled "A Real Hard Case" published by Punch magazine in 1875 humorously highlights some of society's resistance towards granting women their rightful place at the ballot box. In sepia-toned photo capturing The International Gathering of Woman Suffrage Workers demonstrates how activists from various countries united under one common goal – empowering women through political participation. Louise Aston's portrait painted around 1847 symbolizes early pioneers who paved the way for future generations of suffragettes. Her determination and resilience continue to inspire women today.
