Summary "Stories Pictures Tell. Book 3" by Flora L. Carpenter is an educational publication written in the early 20th century. This book is designed to guide instructors and students in understanding art through a selection of images accompanied by narratives that explain the stories behind the artwork. It likely aims to promote art appreciation and education in schools, particularly focusing on well-known paintings and their creators. The book features a structured exploration of various artworks, including those by artists such as Sir Edwin Landseer, Jean François Millet, and Madame Vigée-Lebrun, among others. Each section includes detailed descriptions of selected paintings along with questions to stimulate discussion and engagement among students. For instance, the story of "A Member of the Royal Humane Society" emphasizes the bond between the artist and the dog he modeled, while "Madame Lebrun and Her Daughter" offers a personal glimpse into the lives of a mother and her child, vividly captured in the artist's portrait. Through this approach, Carpenter combines visual education with storytelling, facilitating a deeper understanding of both the art and the artists. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
