Bibliography, index. Black endpapers. Description: Features 330 reproductions of the finest examples, in black and white and full color. The publisher's blurb reads: ''Professor Mendelowitz examines those special characteristics that make a drawing and analyzes an immense range of master drawings both within the context of their historical development and in relation to the elements and principles of line, value, form, texture, and media. In a final chapter the author presents a unique and altogether challenging inquiry into the role of the imagination plays in catalyzing the appreciation of drawing and expression in this form. Designed to serve the interests of those who are leaning to draw and those who are leaning about drawing as an art, the text has been kept to a minimum,''
