A young child with blonde hair in a blue and white striped dress uses a white quill pen to write on a sheet of paper at a wooden table. Ink marks form a large, bold question mark. Other sheets of handwritten paper and several quills in an inkwell surround the child, capturing a hands-on moment of historic writing activity.
