We see the children at the school in 1921, just a few years after Woirld war I. We get a good view of the school in the background. The children in 1921 are dressed more informally than was the case in 1901. The changes are quite sharp. The boys all look to be wearing short pants by the 1920s. We are confused because there are far fewer children than in 1901 even though the photograph includes both boys and girls. Actually only younger boys seem to be present here with the girls. Perhaps there was a separate group of older boys. Perhaps We are unsure just how common coeducation was in Italy. We think that in 1921, this may have been largely a function of the small size of the school.
