EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the determination and grace of Marthe Carpentier, a trailblazing French boxer born in 1893. On March 8, 1914, Carpentier made history by defeating Lucie Warner of England in a bout for the world female boxing title. Dressed in a knee-length dress, soft boots, leggings, a hat, and leather boxing gloves, Carpentier exuded both femininity and strength. The softness of her attire contrasted sharply with the toughness of her gloves, reflecting the unique challenges she faced as a female boxer in the early 20th century. Despite the adversity she faced, Carpentier's passion for the sport never wavered. She trained tirelessly and competed against both male and female opponents, earning the respect of her peers and paving the way for future generations of female athletes. This signed card, circa 1914, serves as a testament to her groundbreaking achievements and enduring legacy in the world of boxing. With her unwavering spirit and indomitable will, Carpentier shattered gender stereotypes and inspired countless women to pursue their dreams, both inside and outside the ring.
