EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Happy native boys of Rhodesia" transports us back to the 1950-60s, capturing a moment in time from MacMillan school posters. The litho print, created by J. Macfarlane, showcases the joyous faces of young African boys dressed in traditional costumes. The image offers a glimpse into the lives of these children as they engage in their education and cultural heritage. Their beaming smiles reflect their enthusiasm for learning and highlight the importance placed on education within their community. In this snapshot, we see the boys gathered together, enjoying a meal consisting of mealies - a staple food in Africa. This scene not only portrays camaraderie among classmates but also emphasizes the significance of nourishment for both body and mind during their educational journey. As we admire this historical photograph, it serves as a reminder of how access to education has evolved over time. It prompts us to reflect on the progress made since then while acknowledging that there is still work to be done in ensuring equal opportunities for all children around the world. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its ability to evoke emotions and spark conversations about history, culture, and social progress.
