EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Miss Lucy Burns of C.U.W.S. 1913," captures the determined and resolute gaze of a pioneering American suffragist and women's rights advocate. Miss Lucy Burns is depicted in the image, seated at a table, her hands folded in front of her, dressed in a simple blouse and skirt. The photograph was taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio in Washington D.C. Burns was a leading figure in the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage (CUWS) during the early 1910s, an organization that later became known as the National Woman's Party. She was also an active member of the National American Women Suffrage Association. Burns' unwavering commitment to women's suffrage led her to help form the National Woman's Party in 1916, an organization that would go on to lead the way in the fight for women's right to vote in the United States. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the pioneering women's rights activists who fought for equal rights in the early 20th century. Burns' legacy continues to inspire generations of feminists and advocates for women's rights, making this image an invaluable addition to any collection of historical photographs. The photograph was taken using a glass negative process, a common technique during the early 20th century. The image is a testament to the skill and artistry of the Harris & Ewing photographic studio, which was known for its high-quality portrait photography. This photograph is a valuable historical artifact, capturing a moment in time when a woman's place in society was being redefined, and the fight for women's suffrage was gaining momentum.
