A festményről
This painting is a classic example of Mulready's interest in contrasting the value of formal education wtih the process of learning through play. A wealthy boy on his way to school - indeed, Mulready subtitled the picture 'creeping like a snail unwillingly to school' (Shakespeare, As You Like It) - wistfully gazes at a group of poor children who attempt to blow their toy boat along with a roughly improvised roll of paper as he is led away from temptation by his mother or nurse. Such pictorial analogies have their root in the moralising genre scenes of 17th-century Dutch painting.
