EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1891 showcases German bodybuilder Eugen Sandow as the subject of a unique anatomy lecture for female students at Mrs Joplings School of Art in London. The image, captured by an English artist from the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the historical and cultural significance of this event. In an era when women's education was still limited, it is remarkable to see them engaging with such a progressive topic. The Victorian period was known for its strict societal norms and conservative values, making this lecture on anatomy even more groundbreaking. As Eugen Sandow flexes his muscular physique before the attentive students, one can only imagine their fascination and awe. The illustration originally appeared in The Daily Graphic on December 17th, 1891. It serves as a testament to the growing interest in both art and science during that time. By using Sandow as their model, Mrs Joplings School of Art aimed to provide these young women with a comprehensive understanding of human anatomy while challenging traditional gender roles. This engraving not only captures an intriguing moment in history but also highlights the importance of education and empowerment for women. It reminds us that progress often comes through breaking barriers and embracing new ideas – just like these pioneering female students did over a century ago at Mrs Joplings School of Art in London.
