New Year’s Resolution a la 1900:

Contributed by Werner Kappus, Apia, Samoa
This image was created in the year 1900 in France, showing how the author thought education would look like in the year 2000. It is part of a series of future technologies imagined, published in the form of cartoons which adorned cigaret and cigar boxes. Later, the images were available also as postcards. A full coverage of these are published here: https://publicdomainreview.org/collections/france-in-the-year-2000-1899-1910/   Enjoy! And let your imagination roam as to what kind of technologies will be doing 100 years from now …
