Art of Instruction

Now reproduced in one deluxe volume for the first time, this unique collection of 150 vintage educational charts celebrates the art of education. Once used in classroom instruction, these charts are now important relics in the history of education, science and art. Dating from the late 19th to early 20th centuries and mostly of European origin, the charts are divided here into the three main categories of zoology, anatomy, and botany. Complete with a brief introduction surveying the history of educational charts and their production, this collection is both a rich visual wonder and a glimpse into a design heritage that is still of significance today.
