EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration is a plate from Johann Bernhard Basedow's influential "Elementary Work" textbook, published in 1770. The image, created by renowned German artist Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, is a monochromatic etching that depicts a scene of children from various continents and cultures coming together to learn. The diverse group of boys and girls, dressed in clothing representative of their respective homelands, are engaged in an educational activity, symbolizing the universal importance of knowledge and learning. The image reflects the Enlightenment-era ideals of equality and the belief that education was a fundamental right for all, regardless of race or gender. This illustration, plate Table LI(c), is a testament to the global reach and impact of Basedow's textbook, which was widely used in Europe and America during the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, this historic work of art is on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, allowing modern audiences to appreciate the rich cultural heritage it represents.
