EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "C" by Francois Antoine Appel showcases a knight on bended knee, elegantly presenting the letter C. The artwork is part of a series called "Alphabet Figure Call" published by G. Lecocq in Amiens around 1890. Measuring 10 x 7 cm, this chromolithograph captures the exquisite attention to detail and craftsmanship of Appel's lithography. The knight's costume design reflects the rich history and chivalry associated with knights, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an era long past. The image carries educational significance as it represents an alphabet learning tool from the late nineteenth century. It serves as a reminder of how education has evolved over time, highlighting the importance placed on teaching children through visual aids. Originating from France, this artwork symbolizes not only French culture but also its influence across European territories. Its inclusion in private collections demonstrates its value as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece. Through this photograph, we are transported back to a time when youth eagerly absorbed knowledge while being captivated by imaginative illustrations like these. The lone figure kneeling before us emphasizes the solitary nature of learning—a personal journey that requires dedication and perseverance. Overall, this enchanting lithograph invites viewers to appreciate art's ability to educate and inspire across generations while celebrating the beauty found within each individual letter of our alphabet.
