EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in the suffragette movement. Taken between 1909 and 1912, it features three remarkable women - Christabel, Emmeline, and Sylvia Pankhurst - alongside Mrs Pethick Lawrence at a Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) reception. The image showcases their determination to fight for women's rights in early 20th century Britain. The Pankhurst sisters were prominent leaders of the suffragette movement, advocating for enfranchisement and equal rights for women. Their relentless campaign was marked by protests, demonstrations, and acts of civil disobedience. In this photo print, they stand united with Mrs Pethick Lawrence behind them as they strategize their next move. The sashes worn by these fearless activists bear the powerful slogan "Deeds Not Words" emphasizing their commitment to action rather than mere rhetoric. This iconic image symbolizes their unwavering dedication to achieving voting rights for women. London serves as the backdrop for this significant gathering, highlighting its importance as a center of feminist activism during that time. The photograph not only documents an important historical event but also captures the spirit of resilience and empowerment that defined the suffragette movement. Brought to us by Bridgeman Images from a private collection, this extraordinary snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when courageous women fought tirelessly against disenfranchisement. It stands as a testament to their enduring legacy in shaping gender equality worldwide.
