Michelson is described as an eternal emigrant, eternal student because he was always studying and experimenting with new styles.
He was an idle eternal student who was supported by his wife, a rich shop owner, who was ten years older than he was.
And that is what is meant by continuing education, by creating or encouraging the eternal student.
He became known as 'the eternal student,' to the great wrath of the heirs who waited for the reversion of his legacy.
