It is published to coincide with "Colors for Modern Fashion" and it is necessary to discuss some of the aspects of the new book to understand the changes in this one. This new edition of "9 Heads" is the re-statement of the author's approach to the subject of black and white drawings, incorporating the most developed thinking and views, both in terms of what the end product should look like, and how best to achieve it. "9 Heads" also presents a different style of finished drawing, one where figures are usually more fleshed-out and where garment fabrics are more rendered than in the drawings of the previous edition. This edition has been extended in scope as that together with "Colors for Modern Fashion" the two books constitute all the elements of modern fashion drawing from Beginners through to Advanced. In-depth treatment in men's fashion. More serious treatment of children's fashion. Completely revised and expanded chapter on drawing clothing on the figure. New chapter on fabrics shows how to make drawings so the fabrics can be identified from the drawing. New appendix with hundreds of flats of modern garments. Quality of the drawing is far higher than the other books on the market. Ideal for those who have no previous formal training in drawing and who have a need to learn the basics of fashion drawing quickly.

Rubens was fascinated by the classical world and the exploits of the ancients celebrated on surviving sculptures, sarcophagus reliefs, engraved gems and coins. When he set out for Italy as a young artist in 1600, he was following in the footsteps of many Flemish artists before him, but Rubens drawings after the Antique have a range and thoroughness unique of their kind. They are catalogued here in detail.;Rome was the focus of Rubens' two lengthy stays in Italy, and he was particularly attracted to the private collections, where in the seclusion of the palaces and courtyards of enthusiastic collectors he could draw sculpture groups over and over in detail and from different angles. Like his brother Philip and other European collectors of their acquaintance, Rubens was a dedicated antiquarian, and his drawings were often made with specific projects in mind, like his Roman Itinerary, a planned Gem Book, and his series on Famous Greek and Roman Men. Rubens drawings of classical statues are still of great value for archaeologists, because they show the early 17th-century condition of a sculpture and they are sometimes the only record of a work of art now lost.;Rubens displays the full range and subtlety of his techniques in his response to classical art. When sketching marble statues, he tended to use black chalk on rough white paper and applied the accents in white, thus softening the contours of the stone and enhancing the gradual nuances of light and shade. He rendered the tauter contours and high gloss of bronzes and engraved gems by exploiting the very different properties of pen and ink. His capacity to bring life to the artefacts he drew can be seen by contrast with the many copies of his sketches that exist.;Made as they are largely at the beginning of his career, Rubens's drawings after the Antique are evidence of his determination to master models before proceeding to draw figures from life. All that he learnt from his classical models of physique, pose and composition, Rubens transformed into a personal expression that informs the gestures, costume and decoration in paintings throughout his life.

R1,341 Discovery Miles 13 410 Out of stock

One of the most imaginative and fascinating artists of eighteenth-century France,Edme Bouchardon (1698-1762) was instrumental in the transition from Rococo to Neoclassicism and in the artistic rediscovery of classical antiquity. Much celebrated in his time, Bouchardon created some of the most iconic images of the age of Louis XV. His oeuvre demonstrates a remarkable variety of themes (from copies after the antique to subjects of history and mythology, portraiture, anatomical studies, ornament, fountains and tombs), media (drawings, sculptures, medals, prints), and techniques (chalk, plaster, wax, terracotta, marble, bronze).With five essays by experts on Bouchardon's sculpture and graphic arts, more than 140 catalogue entries, and a detailed chronology, this book aims to demonstrate the originality of Bouchardon's art within the cultural and social context of the period, while suggesting the subtle relationship between, as well as the relative autonomy of, the artist's two careers as a sculptor and a draftsman.This lavishly illustrated publication represents anunprecedented and thorough survey on this major andunique artist from the Age of Enlightenment, offering in-depth scholarship based on unpublished material detailingthe subtle relationship between, as well as the relative autonomy of, the artist's two careers as a sculptor and a draftsman.
