Seeing Cambridge colleges celebrating the presence of women fellows and staff through artwork in hung in their dining halls reminds me of the important role that the Trinity College’s Great Hall played in Mary Gladstone's developing ideas about women's suffrage. I'm thinking about when Mary met the famous women’s rights campaigner, Josephine Butler, at a Trinity dinner. When Mary returned to 10 Downing Street, she tackled her father, W.E. Gladstone, on the topic of women’s suffrage - 34 years before British women received the vote.
