Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the decorative arts and how these were incorporated into the teaching of handicrafts during the early 1900s. The author begins by discussing the growing tendency at the time to prioritize handwork over purely artistic endeavors in schools, a substitution that the author argues offers a real and practical form of art. The author believes these applied arts, particularly those that involve the decoration of objects, are more directly relevant to the students' everyday lives, connecting more meaningfully with their futures than the fine arts and their focus on pictorial representations. This book includes detailed instructions and examples for many decorative processes, setting out methods for using stains, inlays, pokerwork, and gesso. It also includes an entire section devoted to the decoration of woodwork, with multiple examples of how to beautify functional objects in wood. This book is an excellent resource for those interested in teaching art and craft to young children or for those interested in the evolution of incorporating hands-on learning into the lessons taught in schools. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333813284_0
