EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage - Pickets, 1917" by Harris & Ewing, captures a pivotal moment in the history of women's rights in America. The image portrays a group of determined suffragettes, dressed in simple yet bold clothing, holding banners and flags, as they picket on a bustling city street. The women, who are the focus of the photograph, look directly at the camera with unwavering resolve, their expressions conveying a sense of urgency and defiance. The contrast between the still, unyielding figures of the suffragettes and the dynamic background of the busy street scene adds to the impact of the image. The photograph was taken during a critical period in the woman suffrage movement in the United States, when women's right to vote was still a contentious issue. The suffragettes' persistent efforts, as depicted in this photograph, ultimately led to the passage of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution in 1920, granting women the right to vote. This powerful image is a testament to the courage and perseverance of the suffragettes and their unwavering commitment to securing women's rights in the United States.
