A black and white illustration depicting an art class with students sketching a live model. The model is a nude female figure reclining on a platform in the center, while around her, a diverse group of male and female students are attentively drawing. Some students stand at easels, while others sit with sketchpads on their laps. The room has a simple interior with sketches on the wall, and the focus is on the interaction between the artists and the model. The signature "Isabel Bishop - 1931" is visible at the bottom right.
