From 2001, this is today’s #WHM book- an exploration of women in Australian architecture.
A classic black-and-white portrait photograph of Susan B. Anthony, the legendary American suffragist, abolitionist, and women's rights pioneer, taken in her later years. She is seated in a formal pose against a plain dark background, wearing a high-necked, long-sleeved black dress with elaborate lace trim and floral-patterned lace collar and cuffs. Her white hair is neatly styled in a low bun with a small decorative comb or ribbon. She gazes to the left of the camera with a calm, resolute, and dignified expression—her face conveying unwavering determination and quiet strength. The image captures her as a tireless advocate who co-founded the National Woman Suffrage Association, fought for decades to secure voting rights for women (culminating in the 19th Amendment after her death), and remains an enduring symbol of perseverance in the struggle for gender equality. The soft lighting and formal composition highlight her as an icon of the suffrage movement.
Susan B. Anthony dedicated her life to women's #suffrage & campaigned for the abolition of slavery, women's property rights & more: susanbanthonyhouse.org/her-story/bi...

Mikaela Shiffrin, the American alpine ski racer, stands smiling warmly on the snow-covered finish area after her victory in the women's World Cup slalom race in Semmering, Austria, on Sunday, December 28, 2025. She is captured in a close-up to mid-shot pose, holding her red Atomic skis vertically over her right shoulder with both hands. Shiffrin, at age 20 with long blonde hair partially visible under her navy blue knit beanie, wears a vibrant red, white, and blue U.S. team racing suit featuring prominent Audi and Oakley logos, along with sponsor patches including Barilla across the chest and Atomic on the skis. Her suit has a large white "A" on the front, dark blue sleeves and shoulders, and red accents. She has blue-tinted Oakley goggles hanging around her neck, a blue-and-white striped neck gaiter loosely around her neck, black gloves, and a confident, joyful expression with rosy cheeks from the cold and exertion. The background shows a blurred red barrier.
