EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to 1936 London, where a group of young boys from the Jews Free Boys School in Spitalfields are showcasing their impressive skills. Under the guidance of their headmaster, Dr. E. Bernstein, these industrious pupils have constructed and furnished a modern home within the school premises. The model home is a testament to their dedication and craftsmanship. It boasts a beautifully panelled dining room illuminated by natural light streaming through a contemporary glass ceiling. Additionally, it features meticulously designed spaces such as a bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen equipped with essential appliances like cookers, refrigerators, telephones wireless sets, and vacuum cleaners. Every detail has been carefully attended to by these talented boys – from the walls adorned with exquisite curtains to the carpets laid out flawlessly on parquet floors. This remarkable achievement serves as an inspiration for them to envision their future homes. Captured in this particular moment is a scene inside the sitting room of the model home. One boy can be seen engrossed in conversation over the telephone while another fine-tunes the radio nearby. Their enthusiasm radiates through this image as they embrace both practicality and innovation. This photograph not only captures an extraordinary accomplishment but also reflects an era marked by resilience amidst challenging times – between two world wars when creativity flourished even within educational institutions like Jews Free Boys School in Spitalfields.
