EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Girls taking exams at the Hotel de Ville" transports us back to 19th century Paris, offering a glimpse into the world of education and female empowerment during that time. The image showcases a bustling scene inside the iconic Hotel de Ville, where young girls are diligently sitting for their examinations. The composition is filled with an air of anticipation as these determined students face their academic challenges. Dressed in fashionable attire of the era, they exude confidence and determination despite being confined within a cramped space. The blackboard behind them serves as a visual reminder of their scholarly pursuits, while examiners observe closely to ensure fairness and accuracy. This snapshot from Le Petit Journal's publication on July 28,1895 captures not only an educational moment but also reflects the evolving role of women in society. It symbolizes progress and highlights how access to education was becoming more inclusive for girls during this period. Through this colour litho print by French School artists, we are transported to a time when knowledge was highly valued and sought after by both men and women alike. This image stands as a testament to the resilience and determination displayed by these young girls pursuing their dreams amidst societal constraints.
