SYNOPSIS:
"Over 1,000 anatomical drawings. The book is a complete anatomical reference guide for working artists. This one volume combines, in modernized form, six well-known books of the artist, George B. Bridgman. The book shows and names all the muscles and bones of the body. Included are 67 pages of drawings of hands, 35 pages of drapes and folds, hundreds of drawings of arms, shoulders, heads and features, torsos, legs, knees and feet - all accompanied by instructions and observations of supreme importance to the artist. Widely accepted by art schools and universities as the most practical and technically correct drawings of the human anatomy ever made, this work will save the artist many tedious hours of research and widen the horizons of his drawing. It will be of great value to painters, sculptors and graphic artists in the varied fields of commercial and fine art."
