Cameron House, Washington D.C., between 1910 and 1920: A Symbol of the Women's Suffrage Movement This photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing between 1910 and 1920, captures the exterior of Cameron House, a historic building located in Lafayette Square, Washington D.C. The building served as the headquarters of the Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage, later known as the National Woman's Party. The National Woman's Party was a leading organization in the women's suffrage movement in the United States, which fought for women's right to vote. The organization's activism and protests, including the famous Silent Sentinels who picketed the White House, helped bring attention to the cause and paved the way for the 19th Amendment, which was ratified in 1920 and granted women the legal right to vote. The architectural features of Cameron House, including its balconies and glass windows, add to its charm and character. The building's exterior exudes a sense of history and importance, reflecting the significant role it played in the women's suffrage movement. This photograph is a testament to the perseverance and determination of the women's suffrage movement and the impact it had on American history. The glass negative, taken by Harris & Ewing, is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection and a reminder of the progress made towards gender equality in the United States.
