EDITORS COMMENTS
The Noon Recess (Harpers Weekly, Vol. XVII), June 28,1873 captures a nostalgic scene from 19th century America. In this black and white wood engraving by an unknown artist, we are transported to a country schoolroom during midday breaktime. The image showcases the simplicity of education in that era. A group of schoolchildren, both boys and girls, take advantage of their lunchbreak to engage in various activities. Some sit on wooden benches reading books or practicing their writing skills on small slates with chalkboards nearby. A young teacher stands at the front of the classroom, patiently instructing her students while holding an alphabet chart. The atmosphere is serene as sunlight streams through a window illuminating the room's interior. The detailed engravings bring out the textures of wooden desks and chairs that fill the space. This print is part of Harper Brothers' iconic publication Harpers Weekly which played a significant role in shaping American culture during its time. It serves as a visual reminder of how education was valued even in rural areas where resources were limited. Now housed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this piece by an anonymous artist continues to captivate viewers with its depiction of innocence and dedication to learning during a simpler time in our nation's history.
