"The Lesson" is a painting by Emanuel Phillips Fox, an Australian impressionist painter known for his distinct use of color and light. Created in 1903, this work is a testament to Fox's skill in capturing the interplay of natural light and its effects on color, which he honed during his time in Europe, particularly in France where he was influenced by the works of the French Impressionists.

The painting depicts a domestic scene, a common subject in Fox's oeuvre, where a woman is seen teaching a young girl. The setting is intimate and serene, with the figures bathed in warm, dappled sunlight that filters through a window, highlighting the textures and colors of their surroundings. The use of light not only enhances the aesthetic quality of the painting but also serves to underscore the quiet moment of learning and connection between the two figures.

"The Lesson" is notable for its exploration of the themes of education and womanhood, reflecting the societal values and the role of women during the turn of the 20th century. The artwork showcases Fox's ability to blend the impressionist style with a narrative quality, inviting viewers to reflect on the scene's significance beyond its visual appeal.

As a significant work within Fox's portfolio, "The Lesson" is often highlighted for its contribution to the development of Australian impressionism and its representation of the cultural and social milieu of the time. The painting is held in a public collection, allowing for its continued appreciation and study, and it remains an important piece for understanding the evolution of Australian art in the context of the broader impressionist movement.
