Imagine-Art: Women Are Persons !

For posts on all Murals, Sculptures and Artwork I have come across, go here.

Prologue: I am always amazed at imagination that artists use various colors to bring to life on a wall. And so also that they create with any kind of metal. These are some of those murals, sculptures and any kind of amazing artwork that I came across in my travels and adventures.

“Women Are Persons” is a tribute to the famous five – Irene Parlby, Louise McKinney, Nellie McClung, Emily Murphy and Henrietta Muir Edwards – in Ottawa, Canada. All five were from Alberta who brought a case before the highest court in the British Empire to appeal a 1928 decision by the Supreme Court of Canada who had ruled women as “not qualified persons”. On October 18, 1929, the Privy Council reversed this decision.
