Its architectural details are meticulously captured in this salted paper print from a paper negative, revealing the intricate craftsmanship that went into its construction. As one gazes at this photograph, they are transported back to the 19th century when education was highly valued and institutions like this played a vital role in shaping young minds. The school's exterior reflects both strength and elegance, with its neoclassical design standing as a symbol of enlightenment.
