Collage of museum and classroom scenes: students examine large books and prints, view photographs and paintings in galleries, and listen to a guide discussing artworks. Sculptures, framed paintings, and display cases appear throughout. Groups stand and converse in exhibition spaces with white walls, while smaller scenes show close study of objects and discussion.
