Mrs. R.M. McLennan, Suffragette, 1913
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful and evocative image capturing the spirit of the women's suffrage movement in America during the early 1910s. The photograph, created by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, features Mrs. Russell M. McLennan, a prominent suffragette, riding astride a horse with an determined expression on her face. The image challenges societal norms of the time, as women were typically expected to ride sidesaddle or be driven in carriages. Mrs. McLennan's bold decision to ride astride is a symbol of her defiance and her commitment to the cause of women's rights. The suffragette movement, which advocated for women's right to vote, was a significant and transformative force in American history. This full-length portrait, taken in black and white, captures Mrs. McLennan in her element, surrounded by the natural beauty of the countryside. The image is a testament to the strength and resilience of the suffragettes, who faced numerous challenges and obstacles in their quest for equality. The photograph, part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, is a valuable historical artifact that offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in American history. The image is a reminder of the courage and determination of women like Mrs. McLennan, who fought for the rights and opportunities that women in America enjoy today. Martha Kuntze, also known as Martha Ewing Newcombe, is believed to be the subject of this photograph. The image is a powerful reminder of the important role that women played in shaping the course of American history and the ongoing struggle for gender equality. The image is a unique and unusual representation of the suffragette movement, and it continues to inspire and captivate audiences today. It is a testament to the enduring power of photography as a medium for documenting history and preserving the stories of those who have shaped it.
