EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming engraving captures a scene from the 'Good Old Times' when children eagerly awaited the arrival of the coach to take them to school. The image, taken from The Boy's Own Annual in 1894-1895, shows a group of young boys with their luggage in tow, ready for their journey. The nostalgia of this piece is palpable as we are transported back to a simpler time when transportation meant stagecoaches and roads were lined with eager travelers. The detail in the engraving brings to life the excitement and anticipation felt by these children as they embark on their daily journey towards knowledge. The black and white contrast adds a timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing the innocence and purity of childhood. The meticulous attention to detail by the unknown English School engraver truly captures the essence of this era. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but feel a sense of longing for days gone by when education was valued above all else and simple pleasures like going to school brought joy to young hearts. It serves as a reminder that sometimes, it's important to look back at our past in order to appreciate how far we've come.
