EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage Banners, 1917," is a poignant reminder of a pivotal moment in American history. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, captures a group of women standing in front of a building, each holding up a banner that boldly proclaims their demand for the right to vote. The women, dressed in various outfits, are gesturing towards the banners with determined expressions on their faces. The building in the background, with its ornate glass windows and columns, serves as an interesting contrast to the simple yet powerful message conveyed by the banners. The lettering on the banners is clear and bold, making it easy to read the demands of the suffragettes. Some banners read "Votes for Women," while others carry the names of prominent suffragettes like Martha Ewing Newcombe and Martha Kuntze. This photograph was taken during a time when the women's suffrage movement was gaining momentum in the United States. President Woodrow Wilson, who is shown in the background of the photograph, had recently announced his support for women's suffrage, but it would still be several years before the 19th Amendment was ratified, granting women the right to vote. The photograph, which is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a powerful testament to the determination and perseverance of the suffragettes. It is a reminder of the importance of political activism and the power of collective action in bringing about social change.
