An Edwardian Sufragette (2023) Photograph by Rachel Vogeleisen

This portrait reimagines an Edwardian suffragette, her defiance woven into the fabric of her purple dress, a colour synonymous with the fight for women’s rights. The purple lilies in her hands, far from being mere ornaments, became a bold declaration of allegiance and resistance. Part of the Quiet Rebellion series, the image captures the tension between societal expectation and quiet revolution, where every detail, from hue to gesture, speaks of unyielding conviction. This striking portrait offers a captivating glimpse into the past, adding a touch of refinement to any modern home decor.

Printed on premium archival paper, this art print embodies the Edwardian era's style while offering a contemporary appeal with its high-quality finish. This artwork is a perfect blend of historical significance and modern artistry, giving a voice to women who didn't have one.

Add this timeless piece to your collection and transform your living space into a haven of inspiration and empowerment.

This project is part of the Women in Quiet Rebellion. This project aims to give a voice to women who didn't have one throughout history, connecting the dots and inviting them to a scene that reflects their oppression and the ways they had to learn to rebel "quietly" from the place that society gave them, accepting their lot, feeling under pressure to conform. Their only form of escapism was to rebel inside, moving things slowly like a butterfly's wings, creating a snowballing effect across history. This project reflects the story of all these women who were unable to use their voices.
