Abstract
This paper analyzes classroom everyday images that appear on the covers of two issues of the Journal Atualidades Pedagógicas published in 1955 and 1960. From these images, taken as historical sources, we analyze the role that images could accomplish the construction of an aesthetic school associated with values that were linked to the Brazilian school of the 50s in Brazil. Some traces of these attempts to aesthetical and moral awareness can be identified in representations of classrooms, uniforms and attitudes of students, teachers clothing and classroom and laboratory images, that was growing appreciation that time, marked by developmental ism and by modernizing spirit of Brazilian society.
