Visual artists have always been concerned with the representation of the human body. In this book, Michel Lauricella presents his method for drawing the human body, which is both artistic and systematic - with drawing techniques ranging from écorché to sketching from a living model. In over 1000 illustrations, he shows the human body from entirely new perspectives - from bone structure to musculature, from anatomical detail to the body in motion. A rich, fascinating sketchbook that can become a constant companion.
