EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by CH Bennett, titled "Origin Species: Unwillingly to School," offers a delightful satirical take on Charles Darwin's groundbreaking theory of evolution, "On the Origin of Species," published in 1859. In this whimsical depiction, we follow the evolutionary journey of a slow schoolboy, unwillingly making his way to school, from his humble beginnings as a snail. The image opens with a snail donning a dunce cap and pegtop, symbolizing his academic struggles, as he reluctantly leaves his garden habitat. As we progress through the ages, the snail transforms into a mollusc on a garden wall, showcasing the stages of his evolution. The final panel reveals the fully-formed schoolboy, still unwillingly making his way to school, carrying his satchel and wearing a long coat and bowler hat typical of the 1860s. This playful illustration not only highlights the evolutionary process but also pokes fun at the educational system and the struggles many students face in their academic pursuits. The print serves as a fascinating blend of history, education, and satire, making it a must-have for anyone interested in the intricacies of evolution, the history of education, or simply appreciating a well-crafted piece of art.
