EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the interior of the Princes Skating Rink in Knightsbridge, London, transformed into the venue for the Suffragette Women's Exhibition of 1909. The main hall, filled with natural light filtering through the high windows, plays host to over fifty stalls selling an array of goods. At the far end of the hall, the symbolic mural decoration designed by Sylvia Pankhurst takes center stage. A powerful visual representation of the suffragette cause, the mural features dynamic images of women demanding the right to vote, symbolizing their unwavering determination and resolve. The stalls, manned by members of the Women's Social and Political Union, offered an assortment of items for sale. From handcrafted hats and accessories to homemade sweets, these offerings served not only as a means of fundraising but also as a showcase of the women's creativity and resourcefulness. The Exhibition, held from the 13th to the 25th of May, was a testament to the collective spirit and determination of the suffragettes in their quest for women's suffrage. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into a pivotal moment in history, as the suffragette movement gained momentum and public support, ultimately leading to the achievement of women's suffrage in the United Kingdom in 1918.
