Every artist knows that this will be the pinnacle of their achievement and will want to buy this book. As well as drawings showing typical human proportions, there are examples of different body types.Each chapter includes examples from master artists such as Raphael, showing how they incorporated anatomical knowledge into their drawings of the human body.There are chapters that deal with how each part of the body moves, and how artists can use their anatomical knowledge to improve their drawings of the body in movement.
