EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Ready for School" we are transported back to the 19th century, where a young child is depicted in the midst of preparing for their day at school. The attention to detail in this artwork by English School is truly remarkable, showcasing the artist's skill and precision. The scene unfolds within a cozy interior setting, with warm sunlight streaming through the window. The child stands before a mirror, engrossed in their morning routine. With utmost care and concentration, they meticulously dress themselves in their school uniform – buttoning up their crisp white shirt and adjusting their tie. This enchanting print captures not only the physical act of getting ready but also conveys an underlying sense of anticipation and excitement that comes with embarking on a new educational journey. It serves as a poignant reminder of how education has always been valued throughout history. Originally created as an illustration for The Infants Magazine in 1871, this image offers us a glimpse into Victorian-era childhood experiences. Preserved within a private collection, it now resurfaces thanks to Bridgeman Images' efforts to bring historical artworks to light. "Ready for School" invites us to reflect on our own memories of preparing for school each morning while appreciating the timeless nature of education itself. This piece serves as both an artistic treasure and an evocative portal into another era – reminding us that readiness for learning transcends time and place.
