EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Woman Suffrage - Pickets, 1917" by Harris & Ewing, captures a pivotal moment in American history. The image portrays a group of determined suffragettes, led by Martha Kuntze (far right) and Martha Ewing Newcombe (second from right), picketing outside the doors of the United States Capitol Building in Washington D.C. The women, dressed in their best attire, hold banners and signs, their faces expressing a mix of resolve and exhaustion. The men in the background, some with curious expressions, others with disdain, add to the tension of the scene. This photograph was taken during a critical period in the woman suffrage movement, as the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote, was just a year away from being ratified. The glass negative, a testament to the photographic techniques of the time, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a powerful reminder of the courage and perseverance of these early feminist activists.
