EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1899, where we find ourselves inside an elementary school classroom in Washington, D. C. The image captures a science class in progress, specifically studying water vapor. As our eyes wander through the scene, we notice a group of eager students surrounding their schoolmistress who stands near a blackboard covered with scientific diagrams and equations. The atmosphere is one of curiosity and excitement as these young minds delve into the mysteries of science. Each pupil is fully engaged, absorbing knowledge that will shape their understanding of the world around them. The late 19th century setting adds a touch of nostalgia to this academic moment. Photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston skillfully enhances this historical snapshot by applying oil over the photograph itself. This technique brings out subtle details and textures while adding depth to the image. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand, we are reminded of how education has evolved over time. It serves as a testament to the importance placed on literacy and learning during America's turn-of-the-century era.
