EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Kings School Boy from the 19th century, showcasing both the front and back view of his gown. The image is part of a private collection and was taken by an English photographer. It serves as an illustration for "The Life of Walter Pater" by Thomas Wright, published in 1907. In this snapshot, we see a schoolboy dressed in his traditional Kings School gown, providing us with a glimpse into the educational practices of that era. The boy stands proudly, displaying both sides of his garment - one facing forward and the other backward. The photograph transports us to early 20th-century Canterbury, where this prestigious school is located. Canterbury's rich history as a city adds depth to the image, reminding us of its significance within Great Britain and Europe. The monochromatic aesthetic enhances the timeless quality of this piece. The black-and-white tones evoke nostalgia while allowing us to focus on the intricate details captured by the photographer's lens. As we observe this young student amidst his peers in their classroom setting, we are reminded of how education has evolved over time. This print not only offers historical value but also invites contemplation about our own experiences as students or educators today. Bridgeman Images presents this artwork from their Fine Art Finder collection without any commercial intent mentioned explicitly.
