1651 1719 Baptiste Benefactor Chretiens Churchman Depicted Educate Educator Founder Freres Helped Salle


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enduring legacy of Jean-Baptiste de La Salle, a pivotal figure in the history of French education. Depicted here with two young boys, La Salle, dressed in the robes of a churchman, extends a hand in a gesture of guidance and support. Born in 1651, La Salle dedicated his life to the education of the underprivileged, founding the Frères Chretiens, or Christian Brothers, in 1680. These brothers would go on to establish schools throughout France and beyond, providing education to thousands of children, many of whom were orphaned or from impoverished backgrounds. La Salle's innovative teaching methods and commitment to the spiritual and moral development of his students set him apart from his contemporaries. He believed that education should be accessible to all, regardless of social status or economic means. His work laid the foundation for modern, secular education systems and his influence can still be felt in schools around the world today. The statue, which dates from the late 19th or early 20th century, serves as a powerful reminder of La Salle's enduring impact on the lives of countless individuals. The boys in the photograph, who are depicted looking up at La Salle with reverence and respect, symbolize the countless students who were given the opportunity to learn and grow through his vision and dedication. La Salle's legacy extends far beyond the borders of France, with the Christian Brothers continuing to operate schools and educational institutions around the world. His commitment to education and his belief in the transformative power of knowledge continue to inspire generations of educators and students, making him a true pioneer in the field of education.
