EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back to the enchanting world of 1920s France, where education and tradition intertwine. The image showcases a vintage print from "Alphabet des Petits Bretons" an educational book published by Hachette in Paris. Illustrated by the talented Kate J. Fricero, this particular page features X for Xavier, Y for Yvonne, and Z for Zouave. The composition depicts four individuals immersed in learning: two young children, a boy and a girl, accompanied by their parents or teachers. Dressed in traditional Breton costumes, they exude an air of elegance and grace that transports us to another era. The attention to detail is remarkable; each character holds an object representing their respective letter - a cruche (jug) for Xavier, a letter 'Y' adorned with flowers held by Yvonne, and finally, the iconic uniform of a Zouave soldier worn proudly by one of the adults. As we gaze at this historical gem measuring 31x24 cm from a private collection, we are reminded of the importance placed on education during those times. This image serves as both an artistic masterpiece and as an educational tool that transcends generations. Preserved through time with care and precision, this print allows us to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its cultural significance within Brittany's rich heritage. It serves as a testament to how art can be used to impart knowledge while celebrating our diverse traditions.
