The picture of the American artist “Lesson” depicts a group of young people. “Lesson” conducts the girl of free behavior, as they say now, “without complexes.” Sitting on the table, surrounded by young people, she shamelessly exposed the men’s bare legs in white stockings on suspenders.
Young people, brought up within certain limits of conventions and having received the scantiest ideas about relations with representatives of the opposite sex, busily consider the “magnificence” that has opened to their eyes. A very respectable gentleman sits next to him in the chair; probably it was he who brought the girl here and offers her services to the youngsters.
Despite the self-evident availability of the “teacher”, no one allows any liberties. Life is also a science and it is necessary to study it no less diligently.
