EDITORS COMMENTS
This photomechanical print, titled "Art in Common Things," dates back to the 1910s and showcases an intriguing art class scene at an American school. The image, created by an unknown artist, is a testament to the transformative power of art education during this era. The diverse student body, composed of African American, Caucasian, and mixed-race individuals, is intently focused on their tasks. Seated at the front of the room is a dedicated teacher, guiding her young students as they explore their creativity through drawing on the blackboard. The classroom setting, filled with natural light and adorned with a US Government Printing Office poster, exudes a sense of learning and progress. The students' expressions convey a mixture of concentration, curiosity, and joy as they engage in the creative process. This evocative image, which is part of the Jean Blackwell Hutson Division of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library, offers a glimpse into the past and highlights the importance of art education in fostering creativity, diversity, and unity. The image's timeless appeal continues to resonate with audiences today, making it an essential addition to any collection of historical American art and education.
