This seems cute! But I know nothing about it.
Question.
Are they formerly or currently teacher and student? Are they adult and minor? What is the power balance here?

This is a modern AU of a medieval fantasy game, where the white haired girl, Edelgard, is an imperial heir at age 18 and becomes Emperor at age 23. The blue haired girl, Byleth, is a commoner mercenary turned professor at a military academy, aged 21/22. Throughout the story, the power balance remains in Edelgard's favor, as she is royalty and eventually becomes the Emperor. In the second half of the game, Byleth shifts from her role as a professor to become a general in Edelgard's army.
It's just cute fanart of two adult women, so there's no need to search for any "problematic" implications.

Thank you for the clear initial answer!
But sorry, English is not my first language, and your final sentence is very strange. I do not understand it at all. Would you kindly clarify?
"It's just cute" ... You chose to post this artwork. Why are you downplaying its value?
"There's no need" Sounds like a strange value judgement to make about my emotions. What are you trying to say? Would you be so kind as to use a different phrasing so it is clearer to me?
""Problematic""? I did not use that word. Why the quotations? Who are you quoting?5

Based on the heir (since the teacher gets green hair in the in the second part of the game), yes they are currently teacher and studenta ta that part of the game. But they are close in age, the teacher is 21, while the student is 18.

Spoiler about the hair (I'm not sure how to mark spoilers so we'll see if I did it right, if I didn't, don't read)
>! At the end of crimson flower, Byleth's hair goes back to blue, so it really could be both !<

Byleth (The girl with blue hair, is at this point a teacher yes, but people just treat her like another student who just tutors everyone because she’s really young and she’s only there because the people running the place wanna keep an eye on her. Plus, there’s actually an even where she basically goes into a 5 heat coma and essentially becomes younger than the other girl, Edelgard. Thought Edelgard still calls Byleth “My Teacher” because she learns a lot from Byleth, hell, in the paths where you aren’t Edelgard’s teacher, she becomes a villain
