What is Jan Steen: The Drawing Lesson (Getty Museum Studies on Art) about?
In this fascinating exploration of Jan Steen's The Drawing Lesson , John Walsh offers an explanation of the individual parts and larger patterns of the work, allowing us to see how each prop and pose contributes to the larger theme--the art of painting and the education of the artist. He also recounts Steen's career and the history of the picture itself, presenting, in sum, not only an examination of a fine painting but also a lesson in how to look at and "read" a complex work of art.
