EDITORS COMMENTS
This figure represents a passionate and determined suffragette, advocating for women's right to vote in the early 1900s. Dressed in a mannish mode, she dons a pork-pie hat, shirt, tie, and brown jacket, embodying the defiant spirit of the suffrage movement. With fervor, she shouts a pro-suffrage slogan, holding aloft a "Votes for Women" placard. This evocative piece, carved and painted in wood, stands at 21cm high and 8.5 cm wide, with a sturdy wooden base. The absence of any identifying marks or makers' names suggests that it was commercially produced, making it a testament to the widespread support for women's suffrage during this era. Circa 1909, this figure serves as a powerful reminder of the courageous women who fought for their right to participate in the political process and shaped the course of history.
