Edited classic painting from 1937.
The original is a very beautifully painted portrait from 1937 of teacher Straver (probably Schoonhoven). This painting is in fair condition. Small pieces are missing paint and there are small holes in it. The artist who worked on the painting
I had put darts in here. I lost them but they can be changed to taste applied!
The graffiti reads: 'We don't need no thought control'. A well-known passage from
'Another brick in the wall' by Pink Floyd. This is the perfect counterpoint to everything that portrait radiates: the prestige, reliability and strictness of the teacher at that time. The words of Pink Floyd could mean 'rebel against any form of indoctrination by the “establishment” (government, schools, military, etc.) and don't let them tell you how to think and feel'. And so did the fictional class 4b!
