Book Overview
Called "the perfect reference book" by Art News and Reviews, Stephen Rogers Peck's classic Atlas of Human Anatomy for the Artist has served for almost forty years as the standard manual for students exploring the intricacies of the human form. The beautifully illustrated Atlas of Facial Expression expands upon the material in Peck's earlier book to provide a detailed guide to the complexities of facial expression.
Illustrated with fifty pages of drawings depicting musculature and facial expressions and sixteen pages of photographs of heads sculptured in clay, the book analyzes facial behavior, ranging from the sardonic smile to the lustful leer, from day-dreaming to screaming, from nausea to cold sweat, and more. Artists, art students, actors, writers, and anyone else interested in the art of relating emotion to the physiology of the face will find this volume indispensable.
