EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1901, captures the interior of the Carriage Shop at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Established in 1879, the Carlisle Indian Industrial School was a federal boarding school designed to assimilate Native American children into white American culture. In this image, three boys, likely students of the school, are seen working intently at a workbench. The carriage shop was part of the industrial training program, which aimed to teach practical skills such as carpentry, blacksmithing, and shoemaking to prepare students for a self-sufficient life in American society. The boys' focused expressions and the tools spread out on the workbench suggest the serious nature of their education. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of the students at the Carlisle Indian School during the early 20th century and the industrial training they received as part of the broader assimilation efforts of the United States government." "The photograph is a valuable historical record of the Carlisle Indian School and the experiences of Native American students during this period. It is also a testament to the importance of industrial education in shaping the lives of young people in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image is held in the Library of Congress and is a reminder of the rich heritage and history of Pennsylvania and the United States as a whole." "Frances Benjamin Johnston (1864-1952) was a prominent American photographer known for her documentation of historic sites and buildings. Her work, including this photograph of the Carlisle Indian School carriage shop, is an important contribution to the visual record of American history and culture.
