The image transports us back in time, providing a glimpse into the rich history of women's education in this fascinating region. The school, named after St. Nina, the patron saint of educators, was a pioneering institution that played a significant role in shaping the lives of young girls during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The photograph captures the school's elegant facade, adorned with intricate architectural details and a grand telegraph pole standing proudly in front.
