Abstract
The grand training of drawing has never taken its place as a teaching power. The neglected world of truest teaching, which is waiting to be used whenever drawing is taught as a matter of the mind and not of the hand, and is recognized as one of the first great exercise grounds of the mind, does belong to the teacher's province. Both Ruskin and Thring gave their support to the Art for Schools Association, which was founded in 1883. This chapter describes the aims of this association: (1) to purchase engravings, photographs, and etchings, and to supply them to schools at a reduced price; (2) to reproduce works of art especially suitable for schools, and to publish them at the lowest prices possible; (3) to lend, and occasionally give, groups of framed reproductions to poor schools; and (4) to assist in, or otherwise promote, oral instructions.
