Painting a glass jar in the kindergarten, 1937

In a bright room with potted plants on the windowsill, children sit with their teacher at a low round table covered with paint pots. In close view the young teacher, her hair drawn back and her dress trimmed with braid, holds a glass jar steady while a little girl paints it with a fine brush, her tongue between her lips, and a fair-haired boy leans in to look. The word kindergarten was coined by the Thuringian educator Friedrich Fröbel, who opened the first one in 1840; play and handicraft were at the heart of his method.
