We salute the participants in this weekend's upcoming Women's Marches with 'More Women in Trees'

During the first half of the twentieth century—roughly around the time that the Suffragette movement was picking up speed here and abroad—an interesting photographic genre was born: the Woman in the Tree. Some of these photos were clearly made by loving men, who directed their adorable girlfriends, daughters, sisters or wives to climb on up. Others capture rather more empowered subjects, who ascended a bit higher than might be safe—huge grins across their faces. In Hatje Cantz’s wonderful new collection of unattributed vernacular photography, More Women in Trees, we also find one woman and her girlfriend taking swigs from a bottle, and others who have been liberated from their skirts altogether—whether in bathing costumes, or in the newfangled fashion for trousers. This isn’t a book about the Suffragette movement, but we are featuring it in anticipation of this weekend’s upcoming Women’s Marches just the same!
