Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Drawing in Public Schools: The System of Instruction The teaching of drawing in public schools, as a prominent feature of public education, is one of the marked indications of the practical educational progress of our time. In view of the fact that in nearly every important city of the country earnest efforts are being made to place the study of drawing side by side in importance with reading, writing, grammar, arithmetic, etc., in public instruction, the inquiry naturally arises, What has caused this widespread and almost universal demand for public art instruction? The answer is to be found in the necessities of our national development. No person can carefully study the elements of modern national growth and prosperity without observing that the real power of modern nations is centring more in their industries than in their military establishments. The great international industrial expositions which constitute so marked a feature in the civilization of our time are but confirmations of this fact. And the peaceful industrial competition which last year was witnessed at Vienna, is to-day producing an incalculable effect, politically, socially, and educationally, particularly in Germany, England, France, and America. This exhibition afforded nations an opportunity to present the best and characteristic features of their civilization, and in this exhibition it is to be confessed that our country made a most humiliating exhibit in all the higher departments of art and of industry.
