EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of women's emancipation. Taken in 1913, but published in 1935, it showcases Queen Mary of Teck (1867-1953) at Bedford College, London University. The image portrays a ceremonial scene where staff and students are seen curtseying to Her Majesty as she opens the new wing of the college. During this era, women were fighting for their rights and seeking educational opportunities. This photograph symbolizes the steady development of such facilities for women, marking another aspect of the great movement for their emancipation. Queen Mary's presence at this event highlights her support for female education and empowerment. The monochrome composition adds a timeless quality to this historical moment. The subjects' attire reflects the fashion trends of that time – elegant gowns worn by both staff members and students alike. Their deference towards Queen Mary is evident through their respectful curtseys. Published in "The Silver Jubilee Book - The Story of 25 Eventful Years in Pictures" by Odhams Press Ltd. , London in 1935, this print serves as a visual reminder of an important milestone achieved during an era when higher education was still predominantly male-dominated. Overall, this image encapsulates not only an opening ceremony but also represents progress towards gender equality within academia and society as a whole.
