Erskine Nicol Kept In - Public domain drawing

description

Summary

Nicol spent considerable time as a drawing master in schools, first in his home town of Leith and then in Dublin. His finely-wrought paintings are often invested with humour, some of which may have been gained during his time as 'dominie', and this picture has a distinct feeling of first-hand experience from the defiant expressions of the boys to the minutely-observed edge of the desk.

Carritch is the Scots' word for an abbreviated catechism.[1]
