How Children Learn To Draw - Walter Sargent - Bog

Some of the recent helpful contributions to the subject of teaching drawing have been in the form of theories as to what ought to be accomplished. Others have been in the form of descriptions of the devices and methods employed in various places. This book brings both of these points of view into close relationship, not only by presenting them together in the same volume but also by recording the particular classroom experiences which formed the basis for the theory given and which in turn have been modified by that theory. It seemed to us that the concreteness of a detailed description of the experiments and theory of one school would compensate for the necessary limitations of such a treatment. We hope that the results are representative enough to justify us in having given to the description of the work of a single institution a name so broad in its significance as the title of this book.
