""The Training of the Memory in Art and the Education of the Artist"" is a book written by Lecoq de Boisbaudran and originally published in 1914. The book is a comprehensive guide to the principles and techniques of memory training for artists, and it also explores the broader topic of art education. De Boisbaudran was a French artist and teacher who was known for his innovative approaches to teaching art. He was particularly interested in the role of memory in artistic creation, and believed that a well-trained memory was essential for any artist who wanted to achieve mastery in their craft. In the book, de Boisbaudran outlines a series of exercises and techniques designed to help artists develop their visual memory and their ability to recall and reproduce complex images. He also discusses the importance of observation, imagination, and intuition in art, and offers practical advice on how to cultivate these skills. The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of memory training and art education. The first section explores the nature of memory and the ways in which it can be trained and developed. The second section discusses the role of observation in art, and provides exercises and techniques for improving one's ability to observe and analyze visual information. The third section of the book is devoted to the topic of imagination, and offers guidance on how to develop this essential aspect of artistic creativity. The final section of the book discusses the broader topic of art education, and offers insights into the ways in which art can be taught and learned. Overall, ""The Training of the Memory in Art and the Education of the Artist"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art of memory training or the broader field of art education. De Boisbaudran's insights and techniques are still relevant and useful today, and the book remains a classic in the field of art instruction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
