EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a birds-eye view of the Agricultural Colony at Mettray, France in 1840. The image showcases the unique approach taken by this colony in teaching street children farming and occupational skills. Established as a charitable institution, Mettray served as an orphanage and asylum for disadvantaged youth who were given the opportunity to learn valuable trades that would help them build a better future.
The historical significance of this scene is palpable, with rows of buildings and farmland stretching out beneath the viewer's gaze. It is evident that community was at the heart of this endeavor, as children worked together to cultivate crops and tend to livestock under the guidance of caring instructors.
As we reflect on this snapshot from the past, we are reminded of the power of education and support in transforming lives. The legacy of Mettray lives on through images like these, serving as a reminder that every child deserves access to opportunities for growth and development.
Through Rights Managed prints like this one, we are able to preserve moments in history that inspire us to continue working towards creating brighter futures for all members of our global community.
