EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Sewing Lesson" we are transported back in time to the early 20th century. The image captures a scene from the Professional Women's School and Home Education in Pisa, Italy, between 1910-1920. The focal point of the photograph is a group of young students engrossed in their sewing lesson. It is evident that they are learning valuable skills related to clothing and fashion as they diligently work on knitting, embroidery, and sewing projects. Their concentration is palpable as they navigate through each stitch with precision. A teacher stands at the forefront of this vocational school workshop, guiding her students with expertise and patience. Her presence exudes wisdom and dedication to imparting knowledge onto these aspiring seamstresses. Through her guidance, these young women are being equipped with practical skills that will empower them both personally and professionally. The atmosphere within the classroom is one of focus but also camaraderie. As we observe closely, we notice hints of games and pastimes intertwined amidst their diligent work – evidence that education can be enjoyable too! Cerri G. , the talented photographer behind this timeless piece captures not only a moment frozen in time but also highlights themes such as education, empowerment, craftsmanship, and female solidarity. This portrait serves as a reminder of how crucial it was for women during this era to acquire vocational skills that would enable them to contribute meaningfully to society. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Alinari's collection, we cannot help but appreciate the significance it holds within its frame - an ode to an era where education paved new paths for women's independence while nurturing their creativity within the realm of fashion design.
