The room that you're in is oh, so familiar to my 11th grade english class. Concrete painted over with the thickest of paints, a radiator that was never working to its complete potential, and a poor attempt by a faculty member to help you think outside the box by hanging up simple prints the the worlds greatest arts.
Most likely above the Van Gogh, there is some sort of animal with some uplifting text below it.
I'm just taking a stab at it.
Despite everything else, this is a very honest picture. I like it. :)
