EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the late 19th century, portrays a dedicated teacher instructing a group of grade school children in Washington, D.C. (estimated year: 1899). The children, dressed in their Sunday best, gather around a birdcage, their eyes wide with fascination as they observe the avian creatures up close. The teacher, standing at the front of the group, points to the blackboard, likely explaining the intricacies of ornithology, the scientific study of birds. The classroom setting, filled with natural light and adorned with simple yet functional furnishings, reflects the educational environment of the time. The use of black and white in this photograph adds to its historical charm, transporting us back to a time when the wonders of nature were a fundamental part of the curriculum. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering American photographer, captured this moment in history, providing us with a glimpse into the past and the importance of education and the natural world in shaping the minds of young Americans.
