Carl Ernest Zeuner was born in Zwickau, near the border between Germany and the Czech Republic, on August 13, 1895. In 1922, he came to Brazil and settled in Porto Alegre/RS. He was a painter, draftsman and illustrator, and worked at Globo Bookstore and Publishing House. In the 1960s, he collaborated withRevista do Ensino Magazine/RS(1951-1978), drawing a series of wall charts. This paper aims at analyzing his didactic supplies or wall charts, also called “Didactic Material for Primary Course Classrooms” (Teaching materials for elementary school classes). Approaching wall charts as an expression of the liturgy of Brazil's and Rio Grande do Sul's educational and school universe in that period, and considering that they express a certain language through images, the study analyzes 61 wall charts painted by Zeuner between 1963 and 1969.
