EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage (Misc. Individual Suffragettes)," 1917, captures the determination and resolve of a group of suffragettes as they peacefully protest for women's right to vote on the streets of the United States. The image, created by renowned photojournalist Harris & Ewing, showcases a diverse range of women, each dressed in their own unique attire, holding banners and flags emblazoned with slogans such as "Votes for Women" and "Suffrage and Freedom." The scene is set on a bustling street, with passersby looking on curiously or with disapproval. Some of the suffragettes are seen holding up white and black banners, symbolizing the unity and solidarity of their cause, while others gaze intently at the camera, their expressions conveying a sense of urgency and unwavering commitment. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the long and arduous struggle for women's suffrage in the United States, which culminated in the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920. The image is part of the extensive Harris Ewing Collection, held at the Library of Congress, and serves as an important historical document of this pivotal moment in American history. The photograph's timeless composition and powerful imagery continue to resonate with audiences today, inspiring us to reflect on the progress made towards gender equality and the ongoing struggle for social justice and human rights.
