EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage - Marching in Rain, 1917," captures a pivotal moment in American history. The image, created by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, depicts a determined group of women braving the elements as they march for their right to vote. The scene unfolds on a wet and rainy street, with the women holding up banners and flags, their faces set with resolve. The building exterior in the background adds a sense of urban grit to the image, while the glass negative technique lends an ethereal quality to the photograph. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the suffragette movement in the United States during the early 20th century. The women, dressed in raincoats and hats, are seen carrying banners that read "Votes for Women" and "Suffrage Now." Their unwavering commitment to the cause is evident in their steadfast posture, even as they endure the rain. The photograph is part of the extensive Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. The studio, founded by George H. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, was a leading photography studio in Washington D.C. during the early 1900s. The studio's photographers captured many significant events and personalities of the time, making their work an important historical record. This photograph is a powerful testament to the resilience and determination of the suffragettes, who fought tirelessly for their right to vote. It is a reminder of the progress that has been made in women's rights, but also a reminder of the ongoing struggle for equality and representation in politics.
