Draw a Plaster Cast chapter 10
A Day at the Museum.
The drawings on pages 170–173 are the result of a day that the authors spent in the Antique
Sculpture rooms at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Most museums allow their
patrons to bring a sketchbook and drawing materials to draw the sculptures and paintings without
needing a permit.Museums are overflowing with inspiring works of art. It is highly recommended that the serious student spend many hours

All of the drawings on the following pages were drawn on 12" x 9" lightly textured drawing paper with graphite pencils, rang-
ing from H to 2B, and a kneaded eraser.
