Photo Schoolgirls Perform Science Experiments, c. 1920s

[Girls' Education], Europe

Original Photo

[Girls' Education] Science Laboratory with 6 figures around a table filled with special equipment. c. 1920s. Real photo postcard. 3.5 x 5.5 in. From unknown European country. 4 girls in matching uniforms stand around a table, engage in experiments, and write observations in their notebooks. 1 uniformed young man stands nearby, while an older student or teacher supervises. This dates from the 1920s, after WWI had ended, but a period in which militarization in Europe was considered of upmost national importance. The early 20th century was also a period of great development for women’s education, as more schools and programs opened to girls. Real photo postcard was never mailed, and has no message written on verso. Creases in lower and upper right corners. In good condition.
