EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a writing notebook from the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the study of oval letters using the "Reverdy method." The intricate details of the engraving and printing in intaglio highlight the dedication to perfecting penmanship during this era. Created by Picard-Bernheim et Cie, renowned engravers, printers, and publishers based in Paris and Saint-Denis, this piece earned accolades such as a gold medal at Bordeaux in 1882. Measuring 22x17 cm, this educational tool was listed on departmental lists and played a significant role in shaping young minds through its innovative approach to teaching writing. With ten notebooks containing valuable lessons and techniques, it's no wonder that Reverdy's method garnered recognition with ten honorary degrees and numerous gold and silver medals. The black-and-white aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image, emphasizing the importance of education and childhood learning. As we reflect on this historical artifact from France, we are reminded of the enduring value of knowledge passed down through generations. This print serves as a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship involved in education during the late 19th century—a true masterpiece worth preserving for future generations to appreciate.
