Anna Rochstad: The Pioneering Norwegian Parliamentarian and the Envy of British Suffragettes This historic photograph captures Anna Rochstad, the groundbreaking figure who made history as the first woman to be elected to the Storthing, the Norwegian parliament, on November 17, 1909. Rochstad's election came 21 years before the first woman was elected to the British Parliament, making her a source of great envy for the British suffragettes. The image, published in the Illustrated London News (ILN) on December 7, 1909, showcases Rochstad's determination and courage as she confidently poses for the camera, dressed in a formal suit and holding a hat in her hand. Her election was a significant milestone in the fight for women's rights and gender equality, not just in Norway but also in Europe and beyond. Rochstad's election was a result of the progressive political climate in Norway, where women had already gained the right to vote and stand for election in local and county council elections. However, her election to the Storthing marked a new era in Norwegian politics and paved the way for further advancements in women's rights. The ILN article accompanying this photograph celebrated Rochstad's achievement and highlighted her importance as a role model for women's suffrage movements around the world. Her election was a testament to the power of determination, perseverance, and the belief that women were capable of making valuable contributions to political decision-making. Today, Anna Rochstad's legacy continues to inspire and remind us of the progress that has been made in women's rights and gender equality, as well as the work that still needs to be done to achieve true equality for all.
