EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Manila Trade School' and dated 1912, was captured by the renowned photography studio of Harris & Ewing. The image portrays a serene and educational atmosphere in the Philippines during the early 20th century, when the United States held colonial rule. The photograph showcases a classroom filled with eager students, seated at long wooden tables. The tables are adorned with various items, including glass jars, books, and writing materials. The room is bathed in natural light, pouring in through the large windows, adding to the sense of openness and brightness. The students, mostly boys, are attentively listening to their teacher, who stands at the front of the room, gesturing towards a chart on the wall. The teacher's desk, also made of wood, is laden with textbooks and other instructional materials. The Manila Trade School was established during the American colonial period to provide education and vocational training to Filipino students. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the students and the educational system during that time. The photograph is part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 40,000 glass negatives taken by the studio between 1912 and 1933. The collection is an invaluable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the Philippines and the United States' colonial presence there.
