Children's drawings / Georges-Henri Luquet ; Alan Costal, trad.

Main Author Luquet, Georges-Henri Secondary Author Costall, Alan Publication London : Free Association Books, cop. 2001 Description XXIV, 168 p. : il. ISBN 1853435163 Abstract Índice: Part 1 - The Elements of Children's Drawings: 1. The Intention; 2. The Interpretation; 3. The Type; 4. The Internal Model; 5. Use of Colour. Part 2 - The Development of Children's Drawings; 6. Realism; 7. First Stage: Fortuitous Realism; 8. Second Stage: Failed Realism; 9. Third Stage: Intellectual Realism; 10. Graphic Narration.
Resumo: Georges-Henri Luquet's Le Dessin enfantin was one of the first books devoted to children's drawings and is widely regarded as a classic. Yet Luquet is now mainly remembered for his distinction between 'visual realism' and 'intellectual realism', and for the formula 'children draw what they know, not what they see'." Luquet's contribution was much more extensive, however, and his account of intellectual realism more subtle, even radical, than widely assumed. Not least, like the cubist painters of his time, Luquet questioned the 'naturalness' of linear perspective, and the supposed deficiencies of children's ways of drawing objects and events.
