EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage Banners, 1917," was captured by the renowned photography studio, Harris & Ewing, based in Washington D.C., United States of America. The image documents a significant moment in American history, showcasing a group of passionate suffragists, standing proudly in front of a wall adorned with banners advocating for women's right to vote. The year was 1917, a pivotal time in the woman suffrage movement, as the fight for political equality was gaining momentum. The banners, displayed with great pride, carry powerful messages, such as "Votes for Women," "Suffrage and Survival," and "Equal Suffrage is the American Way." The women, dressed in various attire, including some wearing fur coats, exude determination and resolve. The photograph is a testament to the collective spirit of the suffragists, who tirelessly campaigned for their cause. It is a poignant reminder of the historical importance of this period, which ultimately led to the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920, granting women the right to vote. The photograph, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a significant historical artifact, providing a glimpse into the past and the courageous efforts of those who fought for women's suffrage. The powerful imagery of the banners, the determined expressions of the women, and the backdrop of the Washington D.C. location all contribute to the enduring legacy of this iconic photograph.
