EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving of a Hornbook from the eighteenth century, created by an English School in the nineteenth century. The image is part of a private collection and was featured in John Timbs' book "School-Days of Eminent Men" published around 1899. The intricate illustration provides us with a glimpse into the educational tools used during this historical period. The Hornbook served as an influential tool for young boys' education, symbolizing the importance placed on learning during that time. This artifact represents not only a piece of history but also highlights the significant role schools played in shaping young minds. In this enchanting depiction, we see a little boy engrossed in his studies, holding onto his Hornbook with great curiosity and determination. It reminds us of how children's education has evolved over time and emphasizes the value our ancestors placed on knowledge. The image transports us to another era, evoking feelings of nostalgia and appreciation for our own educational journeys. It serves as a reminder that education has always been vital to society's progress and development. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now admire this remarkable piece of artistry that captures both history and childhood innocence within its delicate engravings.
