De avondschool
Ref: sk-a-87
Light and dark, virtue and vice are juxtaposed here. Bathed in bright candlelight, a girl earnestly recites her lesson, while in the shadows the schoolmaster admonishes a boy. In the foreground, a second pupil, candle in hand, helps another with his schoolwork.
The candlelight here symbolizes reason.
