Sinopsis
Excerpt from Model Drawing: Prepared for the Use of the Students of the Massachusetts Normal Art School, Boston, Mass
The value of a course in drawing when the subject is properly presented to the student can scarcely be over estimated, but it must be confessed that much of the instruction given is such that its benefit is a matter of doubt. The beginning of his art education the student should be taught to see correctly. When this has been accomplished, and he is able to represent truly what is before him as it appears, and not as he thinks he sees it, then he is in a position to advance, and his imagination may be cultivated. But as the first point to be gained is ability to see truly, it follows that we should from the very start demand truth; first truth of outline, next, truth of light and shade, and then truth of color. We wish to consider here Simply truth of outline, but the student will find that the study of appearances, and their representation as fully as possible, even in so simple a medium as outline, will have in great measure prepared the way for the more difficult work in light and shade and color. The whole question is simply one of seeing, and the student should not trouble himself over technique, as he has enough to do to represent nature truly.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive guide to drawing, placing emphasis on the development of skills in seeing and representing form accurately. The author argues that the ability to see, rather than to measure, is the key to successful drawing. This perspective is developed through exercises that encourage the reader to draw objects from observation, without relying on mechanical measuring tools. The author provides a detailed exploration of the principles of perspective and foreshortening, examining how objects appear when viewed from different angles and distances. Through a series of practical exercises and illustrations, the reader is guided through a progression of subjects, from simple geometric solids to more complex compositions, gaining an understanding of how to represent form and space. The book's insights into the process of seeing and representing the world around us make it an invaluable resource for artists of all levels, providing a foundation for developing strong observational skills and mastering the art of drawing. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
