EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print depicts the humble birthplace of Jean Baptiste de La Salle, the renowned 17th-century French educator and founder of the Christian Brothers. Born on January 30, 1651, in the historic city of Reims, La Salle's life and legacy would leave an indelible mark on the world of education. Reims, located in the Champagne-Ardenne region of northeastern France, was a bustling center of culture and learning during La Salle's time. The city's rich history is reflected in the intricately detailed buildings and cobblestone streets seen in this print. La Salle's childhood home, a modest dwelling nestled among these grand structures, serves as a poignant reminder of his humble beginnings. The young La Salle was educated in Reims before joining the Order of the Minims at the age of 17. However, it was his experiences as a teacher that would ultimately lead him to found the Christian Brothers in 1680. This innovative religious order dedicated itself to the education of poor children, a mission that would revolutionize education and leave a lasting impact on the world. This print, with its intricate details and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the past and the formative years of a man who would become a pioneer in education. The simple yet profound message of La Salle's life - that every child deserves a quality education - continues to resonate with us today, making this print not only a beautiful work of art but also a testament to the enduring power of education.
