EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Evicted, from MacMillan school posters" takes us back to the 1950-60s era when education was a privilege sought by many. The lithograph, created by Edmund Blair Leighton (1853-1922), showcases his exceptional talent in capturing emotions through art. The image portrays a scene of despair and displacement as nuns are being evicted from their beloved monastery. Dressed in traditional costumes, these dedicated women of faith find themselves homeless due to circumstances beyond their control. Their expressions reflect the agony of losing not only their sanctuary but also the opportunity to educate young minds. The significance of this artwork lies in its depiction of the power struggle between history and progress. It serves as a reminder that even institutions built on noble intentions can fall victim to societal changes. The presence of soldiers hints at an underlying conflict or political turmoil that has led to this unfortunate eviction. Leighton's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his engraving technique, beautifully capturing the texture and depth within each figure. This piece belongs to a series known as MacMillan school posters, which aimed at educating children about various subjects like geography and history. As we gaze upon this poignant image, we are reminded not only of the importance of education but also the resilience shown by those who dedicate their lives to it despite facing adversity.
