Summary:

"Why, how, to whom and by whom was art taught? Lessons in Art (Netherlands Yearbook for History of Art, Vol. 68) provides answers to these questions by addressing the relation between art and education in the Netherlands from 1500 to the 1970s. The authors gathered in this volume consider the practical and theoretical education of artists as well as the role of art and creativity for general education within a wide societal context. They present new ways of looking at teaching materials and methods, that were devised for the education of experts, and show how art and creativity were employed as powerful didactic tools for a general audience. From early modernity to the present, education, it appears, fuels the production and perception of art"--Publisher.
