EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative photograph captures the determination and resilience of a Suffragette inmate as she performs a mundane yet symbolic task in her replica prison uniform. The image, taken circa 1909, depicts a woman in a suffragette dress, complete with a large prison badge issued from Holloway Prison, diligently polishing a cooking pot or kettle. The setting, Princes Skating Rink, was the location of the Women's Exhibition where the W.S.P.U. (Women's Social and Political Union) displayed a recreation of the Second Division cell. The suffragettes' imprisonment and harsh treatment at the hands of the authorities were a significant part of their campaign for women's suffrage. This powerful photograph is a poignant reminder of their unwavering commitment to securing the right to vote for women, even while enduring the hardships of incarceration." This image offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a visual representation of the suffragettes' struggle for women's rights. The suffragette's focused expression and the stark contrast between her prison uniform and the mundane task she is performing underscore the injustice and the dehumanizing effects of imprisonment. The photograph is an essential piece of historical documentation, shedding light on a pivotal moment in the history of women's rights and the suffrage movement.
