EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "L, Laplander" takes us back in time to the early 20th century. Created by an English School artist, this colour lithograph is part of a private collection and showcases the rich history and cultural diversity of different nations. The image is an illustration for the book "The World at Home ABC: An Alphabet of Countries" written by W Gibbons and published around 1903. It beautifully captures the essence of Lapland, a region known for its stunning landscapes and unique way of life. In this scene, we see a Laplander traveling through snowy terrain on skis pulled by reindeer-drawn sleds. The presence of dogs adds to the authenticity of their mode of transport. A tugboat can be seen in the background, symbolizing how transportation has evolved over time. While this artwork represents historical racial stereotypes prevalent during that era, it also serves as a reminder to challenge these ideas today. Through this alphabet-themed children's book, young readers were introduced to various countries worldwide while learning about their distinct cultures and traditions. "L, Laplander" offers us a glimpse into both past modes of transportation and cultural perceptions from more than a century ago. It invites viewers to appreciate diversity while acknowledging our shared human experiences across different nations and races.
