EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white lithograph print titled "A Lesson in Deportment" artist Gordon Frederick Browne takes us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the world of Victorian education. The scene depicts a classroom filled with children, eagerly listening to their teacher as she imparts valuable lessons on deportment and etiquette. The composition exudes an air of formality and discipline, with rows of neatly arranged desks and attentive students dressed in their Sunday best. Each child's posture reflects the importance placed on proper behavior during that time period. The engraving skillfully captures the intricate details of the school building, emphasizing its role as a place of learning and growth. Browne's work not only showcases his artistic talent but also serves as a historical document, shedding light on the educational practices prevalent at the turn of the 20th century. It reminds us that teaching children about manners and decorum was considered essential for their social development. This print from Bridgeman Images' collection invites viewers to reflect upon how education has evolved over time while highlighting timeless values such as respect, self-discipline, and civility. It serves as a reminder that even in today's fast-paced world, there is still much we can learn from these old-fashioned lessons in deportment.
