EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating illustration drawn by the renowned British artist, Ernest Ibbetson, circa 1910. This evocative image transports us back in time to the early 20th century, a period marked by significant social and political change, particularly for women's rights. At the heart of the scene is a determined and resilient suffragette, her unwavering commitment to the cause etched on her face. She is depicted in the simple yet elegant attire of the era, her posture radiating strength and perseverance. In her hands, she clutches a banner bearing the symbolic colors and motifs of the suffrage movement. Despite the pressing matters of the suffrage movement, this woman prioritizes her health and fitness, ensuring she maintains her vitality for the arduous battles ahead. Every morning, rain or shine, she embarks on an extraordinary routine - running 99 times around her garden before breakfast. This simple yet powerful act serves as a testament to her dedication and discipline, as well as her belief in the importance of self-care. The pouring rain adds an element of challenge to her routine, yet she remains undeterred, her determination unwavering. The garden, lush and verdant, serves as a beautiful backdrop to her daily ritual, symbolizing the growth and transformation that comes from perseverance and hard work. Ernest Ibbetson's masterful brushstrokes bring this inspiring scene to life, capturing the spirit of the suffragette movement and the indomitable nature of the women who fought for their rights. This image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and resilience required to bring about change and pave the way for a more equitable future.
