Image description

After the Civil War, children shown as embodiments of innocence and the promise of America’s future, evoking nostalgia for the nation’s agrarian past as the population shifted to cities, and the little red schoolhouse faded from memory. Released from their lessons, the exuberant bare-footed boys engage in a spirited game of snap the whip, which required teamwork - an important skill for reuniting a country.
