EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage, 1917," captures a pivotal moment in American history as women's rights activists took to the streets to demand the right to vote. Taken by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, the image shows a group of determined women and men, dressed in fashionable clothing of the era, picketing outside the Capitol building in Washington D.C. The women, some wearing hats and carrying banners, hold up signs that read "Votes for Women" and "Suffrage Now." The men in the background, some wearing boaters and suits, appear supportive, adding to the sense of unity and solidarity. The glass negative, taken by George William Harris or Martha Ewing Newcombe (depending on the source), is part of the extensive Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the courage and perseverance of the suffragette movement and the significant impact it had on the political landscape of the United States.
