Riassunto:

This book is a complete reprint of the fabled but rare Drawing Course (Cours de Dessin) of Charles Bargue and Jean-Lâeon Gâerãome, published in Paris in the 1860s and 1870s. For most of the next half-century, this set of nearly 200 masterful lithographs was copied by art students worldwide before they attempted to draw from a live model. This book will be valuable to a wide range of artists, students, art historians and collectors, even as it introduces them to the hitherto-neglected master, Charles Bargue.

L'autore: Gerald Ackerman lives in California. Renowned specialist in nineteenth-century academic art, he is also the author of several books published by ACR Edition, including The Life and Work of Jean-Léon Gérôme, with a second French edition revised and updated, and a paperback edition in English ( Jean-Leon Gerome, His Life, His Work), The Orientalists of the British School and The Orientalists of the American School.

Graydon Parrish is a renowned figurative painter, famous in the United States for his allegory often reproduced, Remorse, Despond, and Acceptance of An Early Death, the Mead Art Museum, Amherst College, Massachusetts.
