EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in the history of women's rights, featuring Miss Lucy Burns of the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage (CUWS) in the company of the renowned suffragist Emmeline Pankhurst in 1913. The image, created by the esteemed Harris & Ewing photographic studio, showcases the determination and resolve of these two influential figures as they worked towards securing the right to vote for women. Lucy Burns, an American activist, was a key figure in the CUWS and the National American Women Suffrage Association. She had already made a significant impact on the women's suffrage movement by this time, having helped form the National Woman's Party. Emmeline Pankhurst, a British suffragist, was also a trailblazer, having founded the Women's Social and Political Union and served multiple prison sentences for her activism. The photograph, taken in the early 1910s, captures the pair in full length, dressed in their respective styles of the time. Burns wears a dark dress with a fur collar, while Pankhurst dons a hat and a more traditional, turn-of-the-century outfit. The image is a testament to the powerful bond that formed between these two influential women, united in their quest for women's equality and the right to vote. The photograph is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, a valuable resource for scholars and historians studying the women's suffrage movement and the broader history of women's rights in the 20th century.
