1884H27613Utica NY 1884. Hardcover. Good. 8vo 8.5 x 6.75 inches half leather good with recent cloth over spine some general light rubbing and wear. With 42 original photos measuring approximately 5 x 3 inches each mainly of Roman scenes ruins at the Forum and other antiquities as well as interiors of art galleries and other landmarks and several of artworks; each photo is neatly captioned in ink by the pupil. We imagine that somehow the student in Utica sent away for these images from a professional photographic studio in Rome. Compiled by student Bessie C. Howe as part of a class in Mrs. Piatt's School which was chartered in Utica in 1837 as the Utica Female Academy but in later years was known as Mrs. Piatt's after the headmistress. The original building was burned to the ground in 1865. 1871 a new school opened in its place on Washington Street next to Westminster Presbyterian Church and in 1875 the school came to be known as "Miss Piatt's School" or the Utica "Fem Sem" a boarding and day school . Miss Piatt's would stand until 1908 when it became the YMCA. Miss Piatt's was well known for its discipline and academic excellence and drew students from all over the United States. It was unique for its time in that there were no exams or graduations: the school's motto was "Als Ikh Kan" which is Dutch forThe Best As I Can and each girl was expected to rise to the top of her capabilities. The curriculum consisted of classes in the fine arts music and domestic sciences and the expected length of study was 2 years. An advertisement in the Outlook a scholarly magazine of the day described the school as "delightfully situated in the hills of Central New York offering through college prep and general courses in music drawing and the domestic sciences: Individual training in all departments a modern gymnasium and unsurpassed advantages for winter outdoor life." The site is now occupied by the Central New York Veterans Building which was constructed in the 1950s. hardcover
