EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "SUFFRAGETTES, 1912" captures a powerful moment in history. The image showcases a group of determined suffragettes standing on a rooftop in New York City, their lanterns illuminating the night sky. It was taken on November 9th, 1912, during a time when women were fighting tirelessly for their right to vote. The suffragette movement was gaining momentum across America at this time, and these brave women were prepared to march through the streets of New York City even after dark. Dressed in early 20th-century attire, they exude strength and resilience as they stand united for their cause. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical context but also in its artistic composition. The stark contrast between light and shadow creates an atmosphere of anticipation and determination. Each woman's face is obscured by darkness, emphasizing the collective effort rather than individual identities. As we reflect upon this image from over a century ago, it serves as a reminder of the progress made towards gender equality while highlighting the ongoing fight for equal rights that still persists today. This photograph from The Granger Collection encapsulates both the spirit of these courageous suffragettes and the enduring legacy they left behind.
