EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "N" captures a fascinating moment in musical education during the 19th century. In this image, we see a trombonist and a man holding a score, both showcasing the letter "N" with their hands. This artwork was created by Francois Antoine Appel, an accomplished lithographer of his time. Part of a series called "Alphabet Figure Call" published by G. Lecocq in Amiens around 1890, these chromolithographs were designed to aid children in learning the alphabet. The size of this particular print is 10 x 7 cm. This photograph offers us insight into the educational practices of that era and highlights the importance placed on music as part of a child's development. It portrays not only the dedication and skill required to play an instrument like the trombone but also emphasizes the significance of reading sheet music accurately. The presence of smoke from tobacco adds an intriguing element to this composition, perhaps symbolizing addiction or serving as commentary on societal habits at that time. Overall, this image provides us with glimpses into various aspects: education, music instruments like woodwind instruments such as trombones being taught to young children for pedagogical purposes; it also sheds light on gender roles with men depicted playing musical instruments while women are absent from this scene. Captured within its frame is history itself - an ode to past traditions and cultural practices that continue to shape our understanding today.
