EDITORS COMMENTS
This topical Suffragette Christmas card, designed by the renowned British artist Louis Wain, is a testament to the unwavering determination and spirit of the women's suffrage movement during the early 20th century. The card features one of Wain's famous cats, dressed as a suffragette, waving a flag and carrying Votes for Women pamphlets in a bag slung across her chest. The iconic Houses of Parliament are visible in the background, adding a historical and political context to the scene. The message inside the card reads, "A Jolly Time. To reach the polling booth I'd go, Through stinging hail and drifted snow, If just by voting I could make, Sweet Christmas sweeter for your sake." This message underscores the importance of voting and the sacrifices made by suffragettes in their quest for women's right to vote. The suffragette movement, which began in the late 19th century and continued into the early 20th century, was a significant campaign for women's political and social equality. Women's suffrage activists, including the famous suffragettes, used various tactics such as peaceful protests, civil disobedience, and even hunger strikes to bring attention to their cause. This unique and historic Christmas card is a reminder of the courage and perseverance of the suffragettes and the impact they had on women's rights and political representation. The combination of Wain's whimsical cat illustration and the powerful message inside the card makes for a thought-provoking and meaningful holiday greeting.
