The School Master
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Jan Havicksz Steen, created between 1626 and 1679. This thought-provoking artwork, measuring 41.8x36.5 cm, can be found in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Mulhouse, France. The scene depicted in this painting transports us back to a seventeenth-century classroom. The stern-looking schoolmaster stands at the front of the room, surrounded by his young pupils who eagerly listen and learn. The atmosphere is filled with an air of discipline and order as the children sit attentively on wooden benches. One particular child catches our attention - a tearful boy holding onto his seat while clutching a wooden spoon tightly in his hand. It seems that he has been subjected to punishment for some transgression or mistake during class time. Jan Havicksz Steen skillfully captures both the dynamics of learning and the consequences of misbehavior within this single image. Through his masterful use of light and shadow, we are drawn into this intimate moment where education meets discipline. "The School Master" serves as a reminder of how teaching methods have evolved over time but also highlights timeless themes such as authority, obedience, and consequence within educational settings. This print allows us to appreciate Steen's mastery while reflecting on our own experiences with education throughout history.
