EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of joy and innocence at the Notre Dame de Zion School in Ferikoy, Constantinople (now Istanbul, Turkey) in the early 20th century. The image shows a group of young girls in their school uniforms, laughing and playing on a swing, under the watchful gaze of a nun. The historical setting of the photograph adds an extra layer of intrigue, as the Notre Dame de Zion School was established by French nuns in 1863 to provide education to Turkish and Armenian girls in a time when access to education for women was limited. The school was an important institution in the multicultural and diverse city of Constantinople, and its legacy continues to be celebrated today. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the rich history of education and cultural exchange that once thrived in this vibrant and cosmopolitan city. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of education and the role it plays in shaping the lives of young people, regardless of their background or circumstances.
