The author of this book sets out to bridge the gap between artist and art-lover by studying the history and various functions of drawing from the point of view of the practitioner. The approach is both historical and critical; text and illustrations have been planned to form a comprehensive survey of the development of drawing over the last five hundred years, from Pisanello to Picasso.
