EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage - Birthday Cake, 1916," captures a significant moment in the history of the women's suffrage movement in America. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, depicts Gertrude Lynde Crocker (right, wearing a wide-brimmed hat), who was the Assistant Treasurer or Treasurer of the National Woman's Party at the time, holding a birthday cake with another woman, believed to be her sister, Ruth, in front of the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage at 21 Madison Place in Washington, D.C. The scene takes place in the doorway of the Union's headquarters, with American flags and banners hanging from the windows and walls, adding to the patriotic and political atmosphere. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the determination and perseverance of the suffragettes during their fight for women's right to vote. The cake, a symbol of celebration and joy, is a testament to the progress they had made in their cause. The image is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection in the Library of Congress, and it provides a unique glimpse into the past, offering a visual representation of the women's suffrage movement during the 1910s. The photograph is a valuable historical artifact, capturing the spirit of a pivotal moment in American history.
