Lumen Volume 1 (Book + Prints)

Featuring chapters on twenty-four essential works of art and the artists who created them, Lumen volume one takes teachers and students (and art lovers of all kinds) on a journey through art history, from ancient times to modern days. 

Tethered by the element of line, some of the artworks featured in this first volume include a Greek amphora, a Byzantine mosaic, a Celtic illuminated manuscript, Chinese calligraphy, an engraving by Albrecht Dürer, a woodblock print by Hokusai, and paintings by Rosa Bonheur, Henry Ossawa Tanner, Van Gogh, Andrew Wyeth and more.

While the book alone is adequate if it's being used by an individual, Lumen is designed to be accompanied by the art prints. The prints can be displayed in the home or classroom, and they allow students to see the works of art more clearly as they study and make comparisons between them. We do recommend that, if Lumen is being used in a larger classroom or co-op setting, each family has their own set of prints so the student can spend more attentive time with the works. 

Please note: The next wave of shipments will take place on Friday, August 30.
