内容简介：
Using works by great masters as examples, How to Look at Art explores how artists throughout the centuries have portrayed motion, color, light, distance, and more through their paintings. Beginning artists will first see a work in full, then the same painting broken down into details. Finally, young artists will be able to use these examples to create their own masterpieces.A painting may be flat, but the picture itself may be very lifelike. In this book, readers explore how artists lead a viewer's eye right into their paintings. Works by Vincent van Gogh and Claude Monet are included among the examples. Beginning artists can then try working with distance in their own paintings.
