Picture Study
(Digital copy)

$ 35.00 USD
This Charlotte Mason art appreciation curriculum cultivates a lifelong love of art through Picture Study, guiding students in grades 1 through 12 to develop a rich visual vocabulary and a personal relationship with great works over time. Designed for both homeschool and classroom use in multi-age groups or with individual students, lessons meet once a week and include extensions for older students that increase the length and sophistication of content. Discussion prompts connect artwork to Art Instruction concepts and invite students to consider how art intersects with other areas of study and the larger questions of life. The 2026-27 course (Rotation 3) focuses on art from 1800 to 1900 through the works of Edward Bannister, Lilias Trotter, and Vincent Van Gogh. This collection pairs well with History and Literature courses, geography, composer study, and handicrafts focused on History Rotation 3, making it easy to integrate across your full curriculum.
The multi-authored Charlotte Mason Centenary Monograph series is designed to highlight and explore the continuing educational and leadership relevance of Charlotte Mason (1842–1923) through the collective contributions of the Armitt Museum and Library, the University of Cumbria, the Charlotte Mason Institute, and other scholars and practitioners worldwide.
