EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1851 takes us back to the historic moment of the founding of a Hindoo Female School in Cornwallis Square, Calcutta, India. The image beautifully captures the essence of this significant event in Indian history. Intricately engraved with meticulous detail, this vintage print showcases the Victorian illustrative technique that was popular during the 19th century. The retro styling and nostalgic feel transport us to a bygone era, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry and cultural significance of this engraving. The scene depicts a group of young girls eagerly entering their newly established school, symbolizing progress and empowerment for women in India. This milestone marked an important step towards providing education opportunities for Hindu girls at a time when such access was limited. As we delve into this piece of historic art, we are reminded of the immense impact it had on society during its time. It serves as a reminder that education is not only essential but also transformative – breaking barriers and empowering individuals. This particular engraving is part of Arkheia's collection and holds great value as it preserves an important moment in Indian history. Its presence allows us to reflect on how far we have come while acknowledging the work still needed to ensure equal educational opportunities for all.
