EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the intense moment of arrest of a militant suffragette, identified as Mary Phillips, in the streets of London during the early years of the suffrage movement. Dressed in a simple blouse and skirt, Mary is flanked by two determined policemen and a mounted officer in front, as they lead her down the street. The atmosphere is chaotic, with shouts and shrieks echoing in the background, and the sense of struggle and resistance palpable. Mary Phillips was a committed suffragette, having joined Sylvia Pankhurst's East London Federation of Suffragettes in 1913. The exact date of this photograph is uncertain, with some sources suggesting it may date back to 1908, but it is most likely from around 1912-1914. The caption, "London Life. Arrest of a militant suffragette. Hustle them in and bustle them in. Scoop up the shrieking mob. Who says that Justice is going to win when the law takes up the job?" reflects the controversial and divisive nature of the suffrage movement and the ongoing debate over the use of militant tactics to achieve women's rights. This photograph is part of the Rotary Photo Company's London Life series, which issued three suffragette photographs at a later date. The image provides a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the suffragettes and the significant role they played in securing women's right to vote.
