EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the front cover of The Daily Mirror from 5th June 1913. The lithograph depicts a momentous event in history - the death of Emily Davison, a prominent suffragette. The image showcases the aftermath of an intense incident at Tattenham Corner during the Derby race. In this dramatic scene, we see a crowd gathered around railings as medical professionals tend to injured individuals. This powerful visual symbolizes both the sacrifices made by suffragettes and their unwavering determination to fight for women's rights. Emily Davison's tragic demise serves as a poignant reminder of her dedication to the cause. As she bravely stepped onto the racetrack, attempting to attach a suffragette banner to King George V's horse Anmer, she was struck down and fatally wounded. This photograph not only captures the chaos and emotion surrounding Davison's death but also highlights how her sacrifice became a rallying cry for women across Britain. It sheds light on the suffrage movement and its impact on society at that time. As we reflect upon this historic moment through this remarkable image, it is impossible not to be moved by Emily Davison's courage and conviction. Her actions continue to inspire generations of women fighting for equality today.
