Thank you so much for this video! I have been teaching Bargue at the Wethersfield Academy in Connecticut, USA since 2019 for both youth and adult and I can testify on how good of a curriculum this is for learning how to draw. I wrote a simplify version of Bargue drawing for children and I have had amazing responses from children as young as 9 years old. I hope this curriculum will be revived in many academies and ateliers around the world. It is "learning to see" as some artists describe it!
Yes it is truly an amazing learning resource, but one that is often misunderstood as a simple mindless coping exercise. Delve a little deeper and there is a wealth of information and knowledge.

Please feel free to use this video in your lessons, knowledge should be there for all!
I wish there was a place to download these plates from.
