EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in the history of education at Hampton Institute, Virginia, around 1900. The image showcases an arithmetic lesson being led by a student mason, highlighting the unique approach to learning at this esteemed institution. The composition beautifully portrays a group of African American men and women gathered outside an early building on campus. Their focused expressions reveal their dedication to expanding their knowledge in mathematics under the guidance of their fellow student. This scene is not only a testament to the importance of education but also reflects the determination and resilience of African Americans during this time period. Photographed by Frances Benjamin Johnston, renowned for her documentation of turn-of-the-century life, this print provides us with a glimpse into the rich history and legacy of Hampton Institute. The architectural details surrounding the class further emphasize its location in the South East region. As we admire this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand, it serves as a reminder that education knows no boundaries or limitations. It is through moments like these that individuals can rise above societal expectations and pave their own path towards success.
