The School Teacher

Albrecht Dürer

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a group gathering in a landscape setting with a text in an illustrative woodcut style. The left side of the page features an intricate black and white illustration of an outdoor scene with a robed figure seated on a stone wall, gesturing towards two other figures who are seated and listening intently. A tree and a hillside complete the background. On the right side, there is a block of printed text in a structured format with clear, bold lettering that appears to convey a continuous narrative or reflections.
