EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of education in Tonkin, Vietnam, back in 1895. The image showcases a group of diligent students engrossed in a writing exam, their faces reflecting determination and concentration. This snapshot offers a glimpse into the colonial era when France held control over Indochina. The scene is filled with an air of anticipation as these young minds put pen to paper under the watchful eyes of their instructors. It is evident that education was highly valued during this time, as both male students and teachers take part in this rigorous examination process. The photograph not only highlights the importance placed on academic achievement but also sheds light on the impact of French colonialism on Vietnamese society. The presence of French influence can be seen through the formal attire worn by some individuals and the Western-style desks they are seated at. This historical artifact serves as a reminder of how education has been instrumental in shaping nations throughout history. It invites us to reflect upon the enduring pursuit for knowledge across cultures and continents. As we observe these determined students immersed in their exams, we are reminded that education knows no boundaries – it transcends time, location, and societal norms.
