Vrouw en jongen bij een leraar in een schoolklas 1825 - 1875

This anonymous 19th-century print, housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts a classroom scene of a teacher, a woman, and a young boy. The teacher, seated in a high-backed chair, appears to be instructing the boy, who stands by a small table, while the woman, sitting on a stool, observes. The print’s depiction of a schoolroom, a common subject in 19th-century art, highlights the importance of education in society. The use of a realistic style and detailed rendering of the figures and setting creates a sense of intimacy and realism.
