EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nursery school, 1898" takes us back in time to the early years of education. Painted by Henri Jules Jean Geoffroy, this oil masterpiece depicts a scene from the Ecole Normale Superieure d Institutrices in Paris, France during the Third Republic era. The image showcases an interior view of a nursery school filled with young children and their governesses. The room is bustling with activity as boys and girls engage in various educational tasks. Some children can be seen crying or weeping while others are diligently engaged in their studies. Hygiene seems to play a significant role as one girl washes her hands at a small washbasin while another boy is being cleaned by his primary school teacher. This painting beautifully captures the essence of instruction and care that was provided within these early educational institutions. Through this artwork, Geoffroy highlights the importance of kindergarten education during that period. It serves as a reminder of how far our education system has come since then, emphasizing the progress made in providing quality learning environments for young minds. This stunning piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty captured within its frame.
