EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts a poignant moment in the history of the women's suffrage movement in Britain, as represented in a satirical cartoon from 1911. The National League for Opposing Woman Suffrage is shown in the image, with a delegation of suffragettes making a deputation to Prime Minister H.H. Asquith. The cartoon, created by the artist CHR, captures the fear and resistance felt by some men towards the prospect of women's suffrage. The image centers around a male voter, who is shown in a lock, with the caption "Good Heavens, if she opens that lock, I shall be drowned, swamped by 8 million women voters." The suffragettes, dressed in their iconic purple, white, and green colors, are depicted as a powerful wave, ready to burst forth and overwhelm the male voter and his privileged position. The cartoon serves as a reminder of the intense opposition and fear that the suffragettes faced as they fought for their right to vote. Despite this resistance, the suffragettes persisted, and their efforts ultimately led to the Representation of the People Act 1918, which granted some women the right to vote for the first time in British history. This historical print provides a unique insight into the social and political climate of the time, and is a valuable addition to any collection focused on women's rights, suffrage, or British history.
