A look into the talent of South African female photographers Commissioned by the Ministry of Arts and Culture, this book celebrates the 50th anniversary of the 1956 women's march on the Union Buildings. It provides a dramatic and unprecedented showcase of photographic talent, from the early pioneers of social documentary, including Anne Fischer and Constance Stuart Larrabee, to the challenging images created by women in South Africa today. 75 photographers and almost 400 images are included.
