Among the portraits in the National Photo Company Collection, this glass negative stands out for its sitter, Flora MacDonald Denison, who served as president of the Canadian Suffragette Association in 1913. Denison was a prominent campaigner for women's voting rights in Canada, known for her outspoken, militant style of advocacy in the years before women won the federal vote. The negative was made by the National Photo Company in 1913 and given to the Library of Congress by Herbert A. French in 1947. Its streaks and blemishes come from natural deterioration of the original coatings, which is worth keeping in mind when viewing the image.
