Description | Christabel Pankhurst self-exiled in Paris 1912 |
Details |
Christabel Pankhurst (1880 - 1958), British suffragette, photographed buying a newspaper in Paris, following the discovery of her whereabouts after she left London six months before to avoid arrest. The Sketch captions this image with the speculative "seeking news of the cabinet?" which conveys Christabel's continued political activism and involvement in the suffragette movement despite being away from London, in this way challenging claims that she had abandoned her cause.
