The Ecology of Picture Study.
Smith, Peter
Art Education, v39 n5 p48-53 Sep 1987
Examines the "picture study" movement which began in the late 1800s and faded during the 1920s. Focuses especially on the work of Oscar Neal, a leading picture study advocate. Attempts to show how the aesthetic theory, beliefs about art, social assumptions, educational limitations, educational beliefs, and technology of the time interacted to make picture study what it was.
