Impressed with her own results she then took a camera to Epsom on Derby Day and managed to obtain permission to photograph one of the competing horses. The horse later won, Mrs Broom was paid for her photograph, she then realised that photography was a way of earning a living. It was needs must really, her husband was an invalid, and Mrs Broom needed to find a way to keep the family, so she began to turn her photographs into postcards of local scenes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Always looking for an opportunity, Christina Broom became friends with the men of the Household Division and was soon invited to take official photographs. As a result, she became close to the Royal Family and was allowed to take candid photographs &#8211; including a portrait of the future Edward VIII (father of George V). When King Edward VII died and was lying in state she had sole permission to enter Westminster Abbey to photograph him at 4am in the morning. What a scoop!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Some of Mrs Broom\u2019s portraits include pictures of leading suffragettes such as Emmeline Pankhurst and Emily Wilding Davidson and one wonders if the current film \u2018Suffragette\u2019 may have referred to some of them as inspiration, as the detail and capture of events was outstanding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">By 1914, as war with Germany drew nearer, Christina Broom had become firmly established, selling photographs to newspapers and magazines alike &#8211; many of which featured her soldier friends. Also selling postcards to departing troops for 2d each.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Broom&#8217;s suffragette photography is arguably her best, but her other work includes, the boat race, first women police, Nurse Cavell\u2019s funeral, Shackleton and the coronation of George V.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">After Mrs Broom\u2019s death, it was Queen Mary who encouraged her daughter, Winifred, to pass the original works to be preserved in museum collections rather than stored in bank vaults. As a result, several public institutions were given Mrs Broom&#8217;s original glass negatives, including the National Portrait Gallery, the Imperial War Museum and the Museum of London.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">An exhibition of her work can be seen at the Museum of London Docklands <strong>\u2013 Life &amp; Work of Christina Broom \u2013 Exhibition Ends 1<sup>st<\/sup> November 2015<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The determination of other women involved in journalism are discussed fully in Women Through Time Part II \u2013 Fleet Street walk on 31<sup>st<\/sup> October 2015 \u2013 booking details here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.co.uk\/e\/women-through-time-part-ii-fleet-street-tickets-18224072692\">https:\/\/www.eventbrite.co.uk\/e\/women-through-time-part-ii-fleet-street-tickets-18224072692<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tina Baxter talks about one of the women she features on her Women Through Time Part II walk on Saturday 31st October.
