EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment when Elsa Gye (1881-1943), a passionate and dedicated suffragette, met her future husband, Will Bullock, in April 1909. Elsa had joined the Women's Social and Political Union (W.S.P.U) in 1906, a militant organization fighting for women's right to vote. She was known for her bold actions, including harassing Cabinet Ministers and helping to organize the historic 1910 Suffragette March. Elsa's future husband, Will Bullock, was introduced to her by Daisy Bullock, another W.S.P.U member. Despite Elsa's involvement in the suffrage movement, which often involved disruptive and confrontational tactics, Will was drawn to her strong convictions and unwavering determination. The couple married in 1911, and their union was a testament to the power of shared beliefs and the strength of the suffrage movement. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a pivotal moment in women's history, when brave individuals like Elsa Gye and Will Bullock fought for the fundamental right to vote. The image captures the intensity and passion of the suffragette movement, as well as the personal connections and relationships that were formed during this time. The photograph is dated 1909 and is part of the extensive collection of historical images available from Mary Evans Prints Online.
