“The Bargue-Gerome Drawing Course” is a complete reprint of a famous, late nineteenth century drawing course. It contains a set of almost two hundred masterful lithographs of subjects for copying by drawing students before they attempt drawing from life or nature. Consequently, it is a book that will interest artists, art students, art historians, and lovers and collectors of drawings. It also introduces us to the work and life of a hitherto neglected master: Charles Bargue. The Drawing Course consists of three sections. The first consists of plates drawn after casts, usually of antique examples. Different parts of the body are studied in order of difficulty, until full figures are presented. The second section pays homage to the western school of painting with lithographs after exemplary drawings by Renaissance and modern masters. The third part contains almost sixty academies or drawings after nude male models, all original inventions by Bargue, the lithographer.

Für alle, die das neuerwachsne Interesse an einer klassischen Ausbildung in künstlerischen Techniken interessiert sind, eine unbedingte Empfehlung. Die Vorlagen dürfen laut Impressum sogar in privaten Kunstschulen und Ateliers zur Ausbildung verwendet werden. Schade, dass es das Buch noch nicht in Deutsch gibt.

Its an essential book for those who take fine arts, drawing and painting seriously.
Even better is that the well known classic drawing course comes in a book with excellent print quality, making the learning process even more pleasant!
