Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The 20th century is considered the heyday of European children's and youth drawing culture. The dramatic events of the years 1914-1950 form the framework for the proposed selection of 19 exceptional European collections: drawings, paintings, writings and two youth diaries. These drawings are documents of serious events and provide deep insight into biographies, private lives and social changes. In 2025, the collection of drawings, compiled by Jutta Ströter-Bender and Kunibert Bering in collaboration with Kristell Gilbert (Musée de l'Education Rouen), was included in the UNESCO Memory of the World Register
