EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Going to School in New Zealand, 1912" by artist Charles Robinson, offers a glimpse into the daily life of schoolchildren in early 20th century New Zealand. The image showcases a bustling scene on a crowded street as children make their way to school on horseback. The monochrome tones add an air of nostalgia and timelessness to the composition. Amidst the flurry of activity, we see young boys and girls dressed in traditional attire riding horses along a brown lane. Their faces reflect excitement and anticipation for another day of learning. The presence of animals adds an element of charm to this snapshot from history. The print captures not only the physical journey but also symbolizes the concept of education as a pathway towards progress and empowerment within the British Empire. It is reminiscent of Alice Talwin Morris' book "More About The Empire" which aimed to educate readers about different regions under British rule. As we delve into this remarkable piece, it transports us back to an era where horizons were expanding, literature was flourishing, and education held immense value. This photograph serves as both a testament to our shared heritage and a reminder that knowledge has always been at the heart of societal development.
