EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia photo captures a historic moment in the suffragette movement, as it depicts the procession held to welcome Emmeline Pankhurst, Christabel Pankhurst, and Mary Leigh on their early release from prison on December 19th, 1908. The image showcases the determination and resilience of these women who fought for women's rights. In this scene, we see women on white horses drawing a carriage carrying Emmeline Pankhurst, Christabel Pankhurst, and Mary Leigh. They are surrounded by lines of members from the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), marching in support of their cause. The streets of London are filled with crowds of people celebrating this significant event. The photograph not only documents an important moment in history but also reflects the spirit of celebration and festivity that accompanied this occasion. It serves as a testament to the unity and strength within the suffragette movement. This image is part of The Stapleton Collection and was taken by an English photographer during the early 20th century. It provides us with a glimpse into a pivotal period when women were fighting tirelessly for their right to vote. As we observe this photograph today, we can appreciate how far society has come since then while recognizing that there is still work to be done towards achieving gender equality.
