EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1868, showcasing the historic Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee. Established just two years prior as a school for freedmen, this institution played a crucial role in providing education and opportunities for African Americans during a tumultuous period in American history. The wood engraving beautifully captures the exterior of Fisk University's campus, highlighting its grandeur and architectural elegance. The building stands proudly amidst lush grounds, exuding an air of significance and progress. It serves as a symbol of hope and empowerment for those who were once enslaved but now have access to education. Fisk University's establishment was made possible by the Freedmen's Bureau, which sought to assist newly freed slaves with their transition into society after the Civil War. This image is not only a testament to the university itself but also represents the resilience and determination of African Americans striving for equality. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Granger Collection, we are reminded of how far our nation has come since that pivotal moment in history. Fisk University continues to thrive today as an esteemed educational institution that celebrates diversity and fosters academic excellence.
