EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "2nd Division grade school pupils examining mail box, Washington, D.C. (1899?)", was captured by the renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. The image transports us back in time to the late 19th century, showcasing a group of eager and inquisitive schoolchildren on a day out in the bustling streets of Washington D.C. The children, dressed in their Sunday best, are clustered around a mailbox, their young faces filled with fascination as they examine the red, ornate postal receptacle. The girls, wearing long, flowing dresses and high collars, and the boys, in crisp shirts and trousers, embody the fashion trends of the era. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of American children during this period, highlighting their curiosity and excitement for the world around them. It also speaks to the importance of education and the role of teachers in shaping the minds of the next generation. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering photographer and educator, captured this moment in time through her use of cyanotypes, a photographic printing process popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The resulting image, with its rich blues and stark contrasts, beautifully preserves the essence of this historic moment. This photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection at the Library of Congress, providing a window into the past and a reminder of the enduring importance of education and the simple joys of childhood.
