This particular work, dating from around 1660, captures a moment in a 17th-century classroom where a schoolmaster is administering corporal punishment to a young boy, a common disciplinary practice of the time.

The painting is rich in detail and character, showcasing Steen's skill in portraying human expressions and interactions. The central figure, the schoolmaster, is shown with a birch rod in hand, emphasizing the stern discipline of the period's educational systems. Around him, the reactions of the other pupils vary from amusement to concern, reflecting the range of emotions such a scene would evoke among witnesses.
