National Gallery of Art: Cazin in the Quarry

Curated by ACT

Using Cazin's painting The Quarry of Monsieur Pascal near Nanterre, students will hypothesize about the workings, setting, and size of this French quarry. Then, applying his working method of "memory painting," they will draw or paint a setting from memory after close observation without taking notes or preparatory sketches.
