EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the moment when two trailblazing women, Miss Fay Kyle and Miss A.K.S Deverell, made their entrance into the hallowed halls of the legal profession as the first women barristers in 1921. Their groundbreaking achievement came at a time when women's rights and gender equality were still contentious issues. The image shows the two women proudly donning the traditional barrister's wig and gown, symbolizing their newfound status as legal professionals. Miss Fay Kyle, on the left, holds a rolled-up document in her hand, possibly a brief or case file, while Miss Deverell gazes confidently at the camera. Their determined expressions and elegant attire convey a sense of accomplishment and defiance against the societal norms of the time. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the progress made in women's rights and gender equality in the legal profession over the past century. It also highlights the resilience and determination of these pioneering women, who paved the way for future generations of female lawyers to follow in their footsteps. The year 1921 marked a significant milestone in the history of women's rights and the legal profession, as these two women broke through the barriers that had long prevented women from practicing law as barristers. Their courage and determination continue to inspire us today, as we strive for greater equality and representation in all areas of society.
