A Language of Many Dialects

AN INTRODUCTION TO THE LANGUAGE OF DRAWING AND PAINTING. Vol. I, The Painter's Terms. By Attrux. Pore. Cambridge: Harvard University Press. 1930. $3.50. Illustrated. 8vo. Art Museum of St. Louis

A LOT of water has passed under bridges and paint on to canvases since the French Revolution abolished the Academies and the Royal Academy was founded. The legacy of the eighteenth century, however, is still with us in the form of a tradition which is not merely a moral but a legal obligation upon the corporation to exact a high standard of professional training. The result is that the student is compelled to learn his métier in a systematic manner from the bottom up. The present volume is the first of a series of four which will deal with the language of drawing and painting. The author, who is an instructor in the St. Louis Art Museum, has had a wide experience of the teaching of art, and his book is the result of many years of teaching and experiment. The volume is a mine of information, and it is written in a clear and precise style. The author has avoided the use of technical terms, and the book is illustrated with diagrams which are clear and to the point. The volume is a valuable addition to the literature of art, and it is to be hoped that the remaining volumes will be as useful as the present one.

The Student Vagabond

There are quite a few lectures of a more or less popular nature offered this week. Professor L. P. Jacks will discuss "The Philosophy of the Constitution" at 8:15 on Monday in the Fogg Lecture Hall.

H. L. Craigmyle will speak on "The Greek View of the World." On Sunday, Professor E. H. L. Craigmyle will speak on "The Greek View of the World."
