Drawing the Draped Figure (Dover Anatomy for Artists) George B. Bridgman
Many art students and professionals have mastered the art of depicting unclothed figures, but still have
trouble accurately rendering clothing or other forms of draped cloth. Part of the problem — before this book
came along — was that there was a lack of concise and simple instruction on the subject, and much that was
written was too vague to be helpful. This comprehensive, well-illustrated book was created to solve the
problem.
In these pages George Bridgman — a longtime instructor at New York's Art Student League and one of the
nation's foremost teachers of figure drawing — offers expert advice on depicting draped figures. "Clothing is
none other than a drapery arranged around a body that is beneath it. To express the multitudinous forms it
takes, one should learn to express in a direct way the different characters of folds, for each one plays its
individual part as distinctly apart as actors play their different characters upon the stage."
Students learn the characteristics of seven different kinds of folds and how to render them, including pipe,
zigzag, spiral, half-lock, diaper pattern, drop, and inert folds. Mastery of these principles is the key to
realistic portrayal of garments, as well as the proper rendering of cloth in still lifes. The straightforward,
easy-to-follow text is illustrated by 200 of Bridgman's own sketches and diagrams, reproduced from pencil
renderings in crisp halftones. Art students, teachers, and professionals alike are sure to welcome this
inexpensive republication of a practical, hands-on manual by a master of figure drawing.
