The Scholar Framed Art Print by James Christensen. “The Scholar” is up on a big stool, the base of which is modeled after a little drawing table. There must be a reason he’s up there so high. He must want to look you in the eye. Or maybe the higher the bookstand, the more important the book. After all, this is the College of Magical Knowledge, the place to discover the unanswerable. When it comes to the College, the fancier your dress, the more honors you have. The amount of clothing and accessories you wear denotes how much experience you have. Therefore, he’s obviously pretty high up in the organization – especially since there’s a little fish in his hat, referring to the ubiquitious fish of knowledge.
