EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the turn of the century in Shanghai, China. It showcases a group of Chinese schoolgirls diligently exercising with barbells at the South Gate Presbyterian Mission School. The image captures their youthful energy and determination as they engage in physical activity outside the grammar school's building. The girls, dressed in traditional attire, stand together in a neat formation, showcasing both discipline and camaraderie. Their focused expressions reveal their commitment to maintaining good health and well-being even at such a young age. This scene reflects an early stage of Westernization that was taking place during this time period in China. The photograph is a stereograph, adding depth and dimension to the image, allowing viewers to immerse themselves into this historical moment. It serves as a reminder of how education played an essential role not only in academic development but also physical fitness for these young pupils. As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, it prompts us to reflect on how far society has progressed since then while appreciating the dedication these Chinese schoolgirls had towards their overall growth.
