EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured by Tom King, Scottish Nationalist MP Winnie Ewing stands outside the historic House of Commons, waving to the crowd with a sense of triumph and pride. The year is 1967, and Mrs. Ewing has just taken her seat in the Commons, marking a significant moment in history as she becomes the first Scottish Nationalist to do so in over two decades. Dressed warmly in coats and gloves to combat the chilly November weather, Mrs. Ewing's presence exudes determination and resilience. Standing against the backdrop of St Stephen's Tower (commonly known as Big Ben), symbolizing British democracy itself, her wave signifies not only personal achievement but also represents a broader movement for nationalism. This photograph encapsulates an era defined by political fervor and shifting ideologies. It serves as a reminder that politics is not confined within parliamentary walls but extends into public spaces where people gather to witness pivotal moments like these. Tom King's skillful composition captures both the individuality of Mrs. Ewing's gesture and its wider significance within British politics during that time period. This image evokes nostalgia for those who remember this transformative era while providing younger generations with insight into an important chapter in Scotland's nationalist movement.
