EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1894, showcases the historic Nicolai Gymnasium in Liepaja, Latvia. Situated in the western part of the country and serving as the administrative center of Liepaja district, Liepaja is the third largest city in Latvia and the largest city in the Kurzeme (Courland) region. The city lies on the Baltic Sea, with its rich maritime history and picturesque old town. The Nicolai Gymnasium, depicted in this early postcard, is an iconic educational institution with a long and esteemed history. Established in the late 19th century, the gymnasium played a significant role in the development of the city's intellectual and cultural scene. The image reveals the impressive neoclassical architecture of the building, with its grand columns and intricate details, reflecting the European influence that shaped Liepaja during that era. As the earliest recorded Latvian picture postcard, this photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to the history of Liepaja and the Nicolai Gymnasium. It invites us to explore the stories and experiences of those who once walked through its halls, and to appreciate the enduring legacy of this historic institution.
