Caption: This print captures the interior of a schoolroom at Peking University in China, circa 1902. The artist, CH Graves, skillfully depicts a scene filled with eager male students engrossed in their studies under the guidance of their teacher. This stereoscopic card offers a detailed glimpse into an educational setting during that era. The photograph showcases the traditional attire worn by Chinese men at the time, including plaited pigtail hairstyles known as "queues". The classroom exudes an atmosphere of focused learning and intellectual pursuit. One can almost imagine the exchange of knowledge and ideas taking place within these walls. Peking University holds great historical significance as one of China's most prestigious institutions for higher education. Founded in 1898, it has played a vital role in shaping generations of scholars and intellectuals. Through this monochrome image, we are transported back to early 20th century China—a time when education was highly valued despite societal challenges. It serves as a reminder of how far our world has come in terms of teaching methods and technological advancements. This remarkable print is part of The Print Collector collection—an invaluable resource for preserving historical moments through stereoscopic photography like this one captured by CH Graves.
