Descripción del artículo del vendedor

168 p. In good condition. - RETROSPECTION over the past quarter of a century, when the author first commencée! to apply, for experimental purposes, some of the knowledge of the methods of construction used by the ancient Celtic Artists, that he had then acquired, to the Art Curriculum of the Schools of an area where he was Supervisor of Art, shows that such an opportunity greatly helped him in the production of this book. The ready response of ail pupils from infants to higher secondary and evening art schools was remarkable. -- To the so-called backward pupils, those who had not been taught how to look and those who had failed to understand how to look at three- dimensional things so that they could be represented by copying the visual facts, the Celtic methods brought the joys of création and permitted the exercising of individual tastes in arrangements, rhythms, colours and uses, often awakening interests in the ordinary representa- tional forms of art that had chief place in examinations. Some of the results from the schools of that period may be seen in the two full-page illustrations in the section dealing witli modem application of Celtic Art. -- The coopération, enthusiasm, untiring energy and taste of Miss Jane Lundie, a teacher of needlework and embroidery, made possible the production of beautiful works by individual and communities of pupils, who, by the conditions that then existed in the Scottish Schools, were mainly girls waiting until they reached the âge of 14 to be freed from school. -- The author's real interest in Celtic Art began after he had been many years in Art colleges, including a few in the Royal College of Art, London, as a National scholar in draw- -- ing and painting. During the whole of his Art student period the study of Celtic Art was dis- tasteful to most Art students, for no instructions could be given. The only way was to attempt to copy an example, so that by comparison no " mistakes " could be found by the teacher, whose knowledge of the subject was merely that of ability to classify it with other Arts by general appearances. Original designs were considered impossible and were rarely attempted. Adapta-tions by copying was the only use. -- That such is still the attitude to this great native art of Britain and Ireland in the System of Art teaching under the guidance of the Education Depajtments of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland requires no fumishing of proof by the author of this book, unless to State, that the only opposition during the past quarter of a century to his self-imposed attempt to spread a knowledge of the Celtic Art culture amongst the peoples of Britain and Ireland, has been from a few holders of Art College diplomas, that had allowed them to become recognised as teachers of Art. Resenting the introduction of the study of a form of Art of which they knew nothing, except the few copies of fragments that they had been compelled to do for historic ornament examination purposes, they sum up the attempt to make a modem use of the principles of the construction methods of the Celtic Artists, of which they hâve no knowledge, as useless for " it can only be done by copying."
