Round and Games in the Recreation Yard - A Glimpse into Childhood
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Round and Games in the Recreation Yard" offers a nostalgic glimpse into childhood activities from the early 20th century. The image is part of the enchanting collection called "Imagier de l'enfance" an album series designed for use in nursery schools and children's classes. The engraving, created by Ferdinand Raffin around 1900, showcases a lively scene filled with joyous children engaged in various games. With their animated expressions and playful gestures, these little ones exude innocence and happiness. It is evident that this recreation yard serves as a sanctuary where they can freely express themselves through play. Amongst the group of children, one can spot plush animals scattered across the ground—a testament to their cherished companionship during these carefree moments. Additionally, a handkerchief flutters gently in the breeze, symbolizing both adventure and camaraderie. This artwork not only captures fleeting moments of childhood but also pays homage to education. The presence of a teacher overseeing their activities suggests guidance towards growth and development. Perhaps she imparts knowledge through alphabet lessons or encourages imaginative storytelling sessions. As we admire this evocative engraving from our private collection, let us celebrate the universal language of play that transcends time and place. These young souls remind us all to embrace our inner child—no matter how old we may be—and cherish those precious memories etched within our hearts forever.
