EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the State School in Sandhurst, Australia, in the year 1886. The image showcases a snapshot of education during the 19th century, capturing both boys and girls engaged in various activities. A young boy can be seen playfully rolling a hoop with enthusiasm, while children of all ages gather around him, observing and enjoying his game. The wood engraving from Picturesque Atlas of Australasia provides an authentic glimpse into the past, illustrating the importance placed on education even in remote areas such as Sandhurst. This educational institution played a significant role in shaping young minds within Victoria's countryside. Sandhurst itself holds historical significance as it was later renamed Bendigo in 1891. The print allows us to witness this transition firsthand by preserving its original name for posterity. Andrew Garran and Frederic B Schell collaborated on this remarkable piece under the supervision of Frederic B Schell himself. Their attention to detail is evident through every stroke captured within this monochrome masterpiece. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of Australia's rich heritage and how far our education system has come since those early days at State School, Sandhurst. It serves as a testament to the dedication shown by educators throughout history who have nurtured generations of curious minds Down Under.
