EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite silhouette print, titled "Alma Mater," dates back to 1913 and is a beautiful testament to the enduring symbolism of education and the bond between students and their beloved institutions. The artist, Lotte Nicklass, masterfully captured the essence of Alma Mater in this intricately cut paper design. The silhouette depicts a maternal figure, personifying the nurturing and protective role of a university or college. Her outstretched arms cradle a book, symbolizing knowledge, while her head is crowned with a laurel wreath, a traditional symbol of academic achievement. The figure is framed by a border adorned with intricate floral and geometric patterns, adding an elegant and ornate touch to the design. The use of silhouette technique adds a timeless and mysterious quality to the print. The absence of color forces the viewer to focus on the intricate details of the cut-out, inviting closer inspection and appreciation. The delicate paper texture and the intricate details of the design further enhance the tactile experience of the print. The year 1913 marks a significant period in the history of education, as many universities were expanding and modernizing their curriculums to meet the needs of a rapidly changing world. This print serves as a reminder of the importance of education and the enduring connection between students and their Alma Mater. Lotte Nicklass was a renowned German artist known for her intricate paper cuts and silhouettes. Her work was widely popular during the early 20th century and is still highly sought after by collectors and scholars today. This Alma Mater silhouette is a rare and beautiful example of her artistic talent and the enduring power of education as a symbol of knowledge and growth.
