Suffragists and Suffragettes
During the last half of the 19th century a worldwide movement started by suffragists and suffragettes to give women equal rights with men. This effort for universal suffrage still goes on in backward parts of the world. These images show the tremendous effort and perseverance made by women, around the world, who made equal rights and the right to vote a reality for women . . . PLEASE NOTE . . . Most of the photographs in the historic image galleries were taken over 100 years ago. The equipment and photo techniques were not perfected and the glass plates, negatives and photos were often stored without great care and as such exhibit flaws and imperfect focus. If the technical aspect is more important to you than the historic or artistic please check the full resolution preview carefully before purchasing a print. Take into account that the larger the print size the more exaggerated the 'flaws' will be.
