Return from Boarding School - A Lesson in Vanity and Expense
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this lithograph, titled "Return from Boarding School" we are transported back to the 19th century, where a young girl's return home sparks both amusement and concern. Drawn by J. L. Krimmel and featured in the Analectic Magazine, this print captures a poignant moment of family dynamics. As the modest girl steps off the carriage, her appearance has undergone a transformation that leaves her father scratching his head in disbelief. The once humble child now adorns herself with extravagant jewelry and fashionable attire, acquired during her time away at boarding school. Her newfound taste for expensive things raises eyebrows within her family. This satirical scene serves as a moralizing reminder of the dangers of vanity and excessive spending. The father's perplexed expression speaks volumes about his apprehension regarding the tuition bill he is likely to receive soon after his daughter's arrival. Through clever visual storytelling, this engraving highlights societal expectations surrounding appearances and material possessions while shedding light on familial relationships during that era. It invites viewers to reflect on how education can shape individuals' values but also warns against succumbing to superficial desires. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can appreciate this thought-provoking piece from American history—a testament to art's ability to capture timeless themes that continue to resonate today.
