AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The class

School: Europea (19th century)

Style: Academic Costumbrista

Technique: Oil on canvas

The scene depicts the interior of a 19th-century classroom, where a group of children are attending a lesson taught by their teacher. The composition is organized around a careful spatial arrangement, highlighting the natural poses and expressive faces of the children. Light enters from a side source, softening the earthy tones of the environment and emphasizing the contrast between the shadowy background and the brightness on the main figures. The work reflects a sober realism, with meticulous attention to the details of the furniture and clothing, characteristic of the academic costumbrista style typical of 19th-century European painting.

Visible restorations are present that do not significantly affect the overall reading of the scene. The frame, made of carved golden wood with classical ornamentation, adds a solemn air and complements the narrative character of the work.

The frame comes as a gift. It may be damaged during transport even if it is properly packaged.

Measures
With frame: 103.2 x 83.4 cm
Without frame: 86.6 x 66.6 cm
