EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "ALPHABET OF GROTESQUES goose, circa 1890" takes us back to a bygone era of education and whimsy. Created by the French School in the 20th century, this illustration measures 16.5x11 cm and is part of a private collection. The image showcases an anthropomorphic goose dressed in formal attire, complete with a top hat. The charmingly grotesque character represents the letter O in an alphabet primer from the late 19th century. This unique approach to teaching children their ABCs adds an element of playfulness to the educational process. The intricate details of the engraving highlight not only the craftsmanship but also evoke a sense of nostalgia for simpler times. The use of anthropomorphism brings animals into human-like roles, making learning more relatable and engaging. As we delve into this piece, we are transported to France during that period when it was at its artistic zenith. The print serves as a testament to both educational practices and fashion trends prevalent at that time. Overall, this photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also sparks our curiosity about how education has evolved over centuries while reminding us that even mundane subjects like alphabets can be transformed into works of art.
