Surveillance photograph of a suffragette exercising in the yard at Holloway prison. This shot was taken by an undercover police photographer. On the back is handwritten ‘Vincent’.
An Alice Vincent appears on the ‘Roll of Honour of Suffragette Prisoners 1905-1914’, a list compiled by the Suffragette Fellowship in around 1950.
Scotland Yard undertook covert photography of militant suffragettes from 1913. The images were used to identify suffragettes attempting to enter public buildings such as museums and art galleries, where they might attempt to damage the objects.
