EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromo label print titled "The teacher and the garments (the paper cooker)" by Leonard de Selva takes us back to a time when punishment in schools was quite different. The image showcases a scene from a classroom, where a stern-looking teacher is standing next to what appears to be an unusual contraption known as "the paper cooker". The atmosphere in the room seems tense, with students anxiously watching as one poor soul is made to wear an oversized dunce cap while sitting on a chair connected to the paper cooker. The device itself is adorned with vibrant colors and intricate details, thanks to the artistry of chromolithography. This artwork offers us a glimpse into educational practices of yesteryears, highlighting the strict discipline that once prevailed in classrooms. It serves as a reminder of how teaching methods have evolved over time and how our understanding of effective education has changed. Leonard de Selva's skillful composition brings this historical moment alive through his use of color and attention to detail. This particular print belongs to a private collection but continues to captivate viewers even today. As we admire this piece, let it serve as both an appreciation for artistic talent and an acknowledgment of progress in education – reminding us that compassion and encouragement are now valued more than punitive measures within our modern school systems.
