Description
Nederlands: Schilderij met Elzas-Lotharingen als "zwarte plek". In de klas staan een militaire trommel en een rek met wapens.
Français : Albert Bettannier, La tache noire, 1887. En plus de l'instruction morale et civique (qui remplace les cours d'éducation morale et religieuse), la loi de 1882 en France met en place « pour les garçons des exercices militaires » (et « pour les filles, les travaux à l'aiguille »). Sur le tableau, on remarque l'Alsace-Moselle en noir, l'uniforme de l'élève, celui du bataillon scolaire de son école, la croix du Mérite scolaire de l'élève-modèle, le tambour à côté du bureau du maître, ainsi que les fusils d'instruction au râtelier, rappelant là aussi le type d'instruction militaire infantile en vigueur dans l'éducation nationale à partir de la loi précédemment mentionnée.
English: Pointing towards the lost French lands of Alsace-Lorraine in French classroom. In addition to moral and civic instruction, which had replaced moral and religious education courses, the law of 1882 in France established 'military exercises for boys' and 'needlework for girls'. On the painting, Alsace-Moselle is depicted in black. The pupil's uniform (that of the school battalion), the school merit cross displayed on the breast of the model student, the drum next to the teacher's desk, the racked training rifles, symbolise the national military training in force for boys in France at the time.
Español: "La mancha negra" (1887) del artista francés Albert Bettannier. Esta pintura muestra a un profesor señalando una mancha negra en el mapa de Francia, donde el país perdió las provincias de Alsacia-Lorena después de la guerra franco-prusiana. Esta pérdida territorial condujo al revanchismo, un pensamiento patriótico retribucionista y una demanda de venganza contra Alemania.
Русский: Альбер Беттанье, «Чёрное пятно на карте» или «Урок географии» (1887 год). Учитель указывает на карте Франции закрашенные чёрным цветом территории, утерянные по итогам Франко-прусской войны
Українська: «Чорна пляма» або «Урок географії» — картина Альберта Беттаньєра, створена в 1887 році і зберігається в Німецькому історичному музеї. На ній зображено чорну пляму на карті Франції, яка з’явилася після того, як Німеччина завоювала Ельзас-Лотарингію після Франко-прусської війни 1871 року. На картині учитель повідомляє про це своїм учням. Ця втрата призведе до зростання глибокої ненависті та вимоги помсти проти Німеччини, що уособлює реваншизм.
