Tight, clean copy. *** "A critique of works of art dating from the early fifteenth century through to modern installations, Learning to Look at Paintings is an accessible guide to the study and appraisal of paintings, drawings and prints. Mary Acton shows how one can learn to look at and understand an image by analyzing how it works, what its pictoral elements are and how they relate to each other. She describes the ingredients of composition, space, form, tone and color which make up a painting, and discusses the importance of subject, function and setting in appreciating its visual meanings. Acton also suggests a series of questions to ask when looking at a painting in order to help develop a critical understanding of art. Acton discusses work by a wide range of Western European and American artists, from the fifteenth century to the present. Learning to Look at Paintings is illustrated with over ninety images by artists ranging from Rembrandt, Van Gogh and Botticelli to Picasso, Matisse and Rothko. Also included is a glossary of critical and technical terms used in art history." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Introduction Composition; Space; Form; Tone; Colour; Subject-matter; Drawing and its purposes; Looking at prints; Conclusion : the use of comparison as an aid to looking; Appendix 1.

Summary of Learning to Look at Paintings by Mary Acton Mary Acton's Learning to Look at Paintings is a guide to understanding and appreciating visual art, particularly paintings. The book provides readers with tools to analyze and interpret artworks by breaking down key elements such as composition, color, form, technique, and historical context. Acton explores how different artistic styles and movements, from the Renaissance to modern art, influence the way paintings are created and understood. She also discusses the role of symbolism, perspective, and the impact of patronage on artistic production. By examining notable works from various periods, Acton demonstrates how to engage with paintings beyond a surface-level glance, encouraging deeper appreciation and critical thinking. The book is structured to be accessible for beginners while also offering valuable insights for more experienced art enthusiasts. Through clear explanations and practical examples, Learning to Look at Paintings serves as a comprehensive introduction to the language of visual art, helping readers develop a more informed and enriched experience of paintings.
