EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage - Pennsylvania Pickets, 1917," captures a group of determined women standing in front of a building with columns, raising banners and sashes that read "Votes for Women" and "How Long Must Women Wait?" The scene unfolds on the streets of Pennsylvania during the height of the woman suffrage movement in the United States. The women, dressed in various outfits, are shown with a sense of unity and resolve, their faces expressing a mix of defiance and hope. The photograph was taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing photographic studio, founded by George H. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in Washington D.C. in 1896. The studio became a leading supplier of photographs to newspapers and magazines, and its collection includes numerous images documenting the social and political events of the early 20th century. This particular photograph is a glass negative, providing a high level of detail and contrast that adds to its historical significance. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the courage and perseverance of the women who fought for their right to vote, a right that was granted to them with the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920.
