Titled *American Woman and Her Political Peers*, this c1893 print reproduces a painting by W.A. Ford, composed and copyrighted by Henrietta Briggs-Wall. The record also links it to Frances Willard, the temperance leader who presided over the Woman's Christian Temperance Union from 1879 until her death in 1898 and who backed woman suffrage. The caption information comes from an older card and has not been fully verified, so the figures shown and the painting's original purpose are best confirmed elsewhere, though the title reflects the era's campaign for women's political rights.
