Statue of Emmeline Pankhurst, Bronze statue in St Peter's Square, Manchester, England

The bronze sculpture depicts suffragette leader Emmeline Pankhurst standing on a chair, raising her arm to address the public in Manchester.

The statue marks the centenary of women's voting rights in the United Kingdom, unveiled in December 2018 after a five-year public campaign.

The monument stands as the second female representation in Manchester's public spaces, following a century-old statue of Queen Victoria.

The statue includes a surrounding Meeting Circle that provides seating for visitors and creates a space for public gatherings.

Six thousand people attended the unveiling ceremony, with children waving banners and chanting the suffragette motto 'deeds not words.'
