EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determination and resilience of a London Fire Brigade despatch rider braving the night to deliver crucial messages, as the iconic badge of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance gazes on. The badge, adopted at the 1906 congress held in Copenhagen, symbolizes the unwavering commitment of the suffragette movement to secure women's right to vote. The design features the figure of Justice, depicted with scales in hand, symbolizing balance and fairness, while the rising sun motif behind represents the dawn of a new era. The words "Jus Suffragii" inscribed at the bottom translate to "Right to Vote," encapsulating the movement's core mission. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the historical struggle for women's suffrage and the indomitable spirit of those who fought for it.
