EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures the indomitable spirit of Mrs Flora Drummond, a prominent figure in the suffragette movement during early 20th century Britain. Arrested in Hyde Park, London in 1914, this arresting image showcases her unwavering dedication to fighting for women's right to vote. Mrs Drummond joined the suffragette campaign shortly after witnessing the first militant act by Christabel Pankhurst and Annie Kenney in Manchester back in 1905. Moving to London as a paid organiser, she fearlessly faced imprisonment on multiple occasions, including a three-week sentence for chaining herself to the railings of 10 Downing Street. Dressed impeccably in her hat and uniform-like attire, Mrs Drummond exudes an air of authority and determination. Her presence alone challenges societal norms and defies gender expectations prevalent at that time. This photograph serves as a testament to her courage and resilience. Colorised with meticulous detail by FGH Salusbury in 1935, this print from King Emperors Jubilee offers a glimpse into history through vibrant hues. It immortalizes General Flora Drummond's significant contribution to women's rights activism while reminding us of the struggles endured by those who fought tirelessly for equality. As we reflect upon this powerful image, it is impossible not to be inspired by Mrs Drummond's unwavering commitment towards achieving justice. Her legacy lives on as an emblematic symbol of female empowerment and progress towards equal rights for all genders.
