En savoir plus sur le livre

The expressivity of the nude has inspired artists throughout history, making an understanding of human anatomy essential for effective figure representation. This comprehensive guide serves as a definitive reference for artists, consolidating vital information on human form into one accessible volume. Created by Eliot Goldfinger, a sculptor and anatomy lecturer, this extensively illustrated work features hundreds of photos and drawings, offering unparalleled views of bones and muscles. Each anatomical structure influencing surface form is meticulously illustrated, informed by studies of live models and cadavers. Unique presentations of surface structures, including fat pads and veins, are included, alongside cross sections derived from advanced imaging techniques. Information is conveniently organized on facing pages, with a two-color format that highlights key points for easy navigation. Additionally, a chapter on the artistic development of basic forms showcases the evolution of the figure, head, and hands, contextualizing anatomical details within the broader artistic framework. This guide is poised to become a standard reference for artists, art students, and historians, while also benefiting physical therapists, athletes, and anyone interested in the human body's external form. Its relevance is heightened by the current resurgence of interest in figurative art.
