EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. R.C. Burleson, Suffragist - 1913" is an evocative photograph capturing the determined spirit of Jane Walker Burleson, an American socialite, artist, and suffragette. The image, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, portrays Burleson as a trailblazing figure in the women's suffrage movement in the United States during the 1910s. Burleson, wife of Richard Coke Burleson, is depicted here wearing a stylish yet understated outfit, complete with a hat and gloves, that reflects the fashionable yet practical attire of the era. Her confident gaze and clenched fist, however, convey her unwavering commitment to the cause. At the time of this photograph, Burleson held the esteemed position of Grand Marshal of the Woman Suffrage Parade of 1913 in Washington, D.C. This historic event marked a pivotal moment in the fight for women's rights to vote in the United States. Despite her significant contributions to the suffrage movement, Burleson's personal life was marked by tragedy and controversy. She and her husband divorced in 1938, with Isabelle, his second wife, named as a co-defendant. In 1940, Burleson shot and killed Isabelle in a South Carolina restaurant, leading to her being sentenced to 12 years in prison. She was released after serving eight years. This powerful image of Mrs. R.C. Burleson, taken by Harris & Ewing, stands as a testament to her role as a suffragist and the complexities of her life beyond the headlines. It is a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of women who fought for their rights and left indelible marks on history. The photograph is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection held at the Library of Congress. It is a valuable addition to any collection focused on the history of women's rights, activism, and the 20th century.
