EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "A class in clay modeling, 2nd Division," was captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston around the turn of the 20th century, approximately in the year 1899. The image portrays a group of boys and girls intently focused on their clay modeling assignment in a spacious, well-lit schoolroom. The room is adorned with wooden desks and furniture, creating an inviting atmosphere that fosters creativity and learning. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering figure in American photography, skillfully documented this moment in the country's educational history. The students, dressed in clothing typical of the era, display a range of emotions as they work on their projects, from intense concentration to playful interaction. The use of black and white adds a timeless quality to the image, transporting us back to a simpler era in American education. This photograph is a precious addition to the rich heritage of art and education in the United States. It was taken in Washington D.C., the District of Columbia, and is now part of the prestigious collections at the Library of Congress. The image is a testament to the enduring value of hands-on learning and the importance of creativity in the educational experience.
