EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment in history - women and children performing in a suffrage tableau on 3rd March 1913. Taken by an American photographer, this image is now part of the Schlesinger Library at Harvard University. In front of the Treasury Building, Liberty stands tall with her attendants surrounding her. This tableau was part of a larger march in Washington DC, where over 5,000 people gathered to support women's suffrage. However, their peaceful demonstration was met with great hostility. The photograph showcases the determination and resilience of these suffragettes as they symbolize reform and fight for equal rights for women. Dressed in classical costumes, they embody strength and unity as they parade through the streets of America. This image serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by women during that time period and their unwavering commitment to achieving equality. It represents a pivotal moment in North American history when women began demanding their right to vote. Today, this photograph stands as a testament to the bravery and perseverance of those who fought for gender equality. It continues to inspire future generations to stand up for justice and advocate for change.
