EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, a child is seen discovering an illustration of the "Letters of an American Farmer" by Saint John de Crevecoeur. The lithograph, created by Antoine Borel in 1783, captures the essence of a significant literary work from the 18th century. The child's expression reflects a mixture of curiosity and excitement as they stumble upon this piece of art at the Musee Franco American in Blerancourt, France. It is evident that their encounter with this engraving holds great importance to them. This image symbolizes more than just a simple discovery; it represents the power of literature and its ability to transcend borders. As an emblematic figure for both European and American societies, the child embodies the joyous encounter between two cultures. Furthermore, this photograph evokes contemplation about immigration and fear surrounding unfamiliar territories. The presence of an American Indian within the illustration highlights themes related to native populations and encounters with different civilizations. As we observe this scene through our screens or prints like these, we are reminded that knowledge knows no boundaries. Through literature and art, we can bridge gaps between nations and foster understanding among diverse populations. Ultimately, this print serves as a reminder that even in today's globalized world, there is still much to be discovered and learned from one another.
