EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: PLAY" takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of a school at play in the late 19th century. The steel engraving, created by an American artist in 1870 after a painting by Carl Schloesser, transports us into the interior of a German classroom. In this lively scene, we see pupils engaged in various leisure activities during their break time. A group of young boys can be seen engrossed in conversation while one indulges himself with a pipe and tobacco – perhaps an unusual sight for today's elementary schools! The school master stands nearby, observing his students with pride as they enjoy their well-deserved moments of play. The attention to detail is remarkable; from the meticulously engraved expressions on each face to the intricate patterns adorning the walls and furniture. This artwork not only captures a specific moment but also provides insight into the cultural norms and values prevalent during that time period. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of how education has evolved over centuries yet remains rooted in timeless principles such as fostering camaraderie among students and encouraging them to explore their interests beyond academics. It serves as both a nostalgic reminder of simpler times and an appreciation for progress made since then. This Granger Collection print allows us to appreciate history through artistry, offering glimpses into forgotten moments frozen forever on paper.
