EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative cyanotype photograph, titled "Classroom at the Indian Industrial School, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, between 1901 and 1903," captures a moment in the history of American education. Taken by renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston, the image offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, a pioneering boarding school for Native American students established in 1879 under US governmental authority. The photograph portrays a sparsely furnished classroom filled with students, some of whom are intently focused on their lessons while others appear more distracted. The room is dominated by a large, empty blackboard, suggesting that a lesson has recently concluded. Desks, arranged in neat rows, are occupied by a mix of male and female students, some of whom are teenagers, others younger. The teacher, a woman, stands at the front of the room, her back to the camera, likely preparing for the next lesson. The use of the cyanotype process imbues the image with a unique, monochromatic blue hue, adding to its timeless and contemplative quality. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the complex and controversial history of Native American education in the United States, and the efforts to assimilate indigenous peoples into American society. The image is part of the Frances Benjamin Johnston Collection at the Library of Congress, and serves as an important visual record of a significant period in American history.
