Emmeline Pankhurst, British suffragette, and her daughter Christabel, early 20th century (1956)
Emmeline Pankhurst, British suffragette, and her daughter Christabel, early 20th century (1956). Emmeline Pankhurst (1857-1918) and her daughter Christabel (1880-1958), were among the leaders of the campaign to secure the vote for women. Their militant tactics resulted in their being arrested on numerous occasions (12 times in one year in Emmelines case). In 1908, the women served 2 months apiece in Holloway Prison after leading a deputation to Parliament and inciting the crowd to rush the House of Commons.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the indomitable spirit of Emmeline Pankhurst, a prominent British suffragette, alongside her daughter Christabel. Taken in the early 20th century, this powerful image showcases their unwavering dedication to the campaign for women's voting rights. Emmeline Pankhurst (1857-1918) and Christabel (1880-1958) were fearless leaders who employed militant tactics in their fight for equality. Their relentless activism often led to multiple arrests, with Emmeline enduring an astonishing twelve times in just one year. In 1908, both mother and daughter served two months each in Holloway Prison after leading a daring deputation to Parliament that incited a crowd to rush the House of Commons. Dressed impeccably in fashionable attire of the time, these remarkable women challenge societal norms while exuding courage and determination. The photo not only symbolizes their political struggle but also celebrates their bond as family - a testament to the strength derived from motherhood. As pioneers of female empowerment, Emmeline Pankhurst and Christabel left an indelible mark on history by championing human rights and democracy. This print serves as a reminder of their tireless efforts towards achieving gender equality within Britain. Preserved through time by The Print Collector11 collection, this photograph immortalizes two extraordinary individuals whose legacy continues to inspire generations worldwide.
