EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of the Swiss Alps, far from the chaotic streets of London and the relentless pursuit of the authorities, Christabel Pankhurst, the charismatic and fearless leader of the British suffragette movement, found momentary respite. The year was 1912, and a warrant for her arrest had been issued in connection with the militant suffragette policy of window breaking. Yet, amidst the snow-covered landscapes of Villar, nestled in the canton of Valais, Christabel found solace and joy. Clad in a thick fur coat and hat, her face beaming with excitement, she gracefully descends the snowy slope on a red sledge, her eyes sparkling with the thrill of the moment. The serene backdrop of the snow-capped mountains and the tranquil winter scene starkly contrast the tumultuous political climate that had defined her recent days. Christabel Pankhurst, the eldest daughter of Emmeline Pankhurst, had dedicated her life to the fight for women's suffrage. Her unwavering commitment to the cause had led her to lead the National Women's Social and Political Union, where she employed militant tactics, including arson and window breaking, to bring attention to the suffragette movement. But in this moment, as she glides effortlessly down the snowy slope, the weight of her responsibilities seems to melt away, leaving only the pure joy of the winter sport. The sledging excursion in Villar, a popular winter destination, was a brief respite from the relentless struggle for women's rights. As the snowflakes gently fall around her, Christabel Pankhurst, the suffragette leader, becomes just a woman, enjoying the simple pleasure of sledging in the snow. This image, taken in the winter of 1912, serves as a poignant reminder of the indomitable spirit and resilience of a woman who refused to be silenced, even amidst adversity.
