La Nouvelle Europe: The German Constituent Assembly, Women Present - This photograph, titled "La Nouvelle Europe: la constituante Allemande; Les femmes dans l'Assemblée... 1919," depicts a pivotal moment in German history following the end of World War I. The image, created by an unknown artist, was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. In the photograph, three women representatives of the Socialist Majority Party and one elected representative of the German National People's Party are shown in the German National Assembly, also known as the Weimar National Assembly. Among them is Fraulein Anna von Gierke from Charlottenbourg, a prominent figure in the German women's rights movement. The photograph captures the essence of the post-war democratic era in Germany, as women were granted the right to vote and participate in the political process for the first time. The image conveys a sense of progress and the beginning of sexual equality in politics. The women, dressed in formal attire, sit confidently in their seats, demonstrating their newfound power and influence in the National Assembly. The photograph is a testament to the political landscape of the Weimar Republic, a period of instability and change in German history. The black and white image, with its intriguing composition and historical significance, serves as a powerful reminder of the role women played in shaping the political future of their country during the aftermath of World War I. The print collector's acquisition of this rare and valuable photograph adds to the historical record of this important period in German history, preserving the image for future generations to study and appreciate.
