Excerpt from Drawing From Memory: The Cavé Method for Learning to Draw From Memory

Among the ancients, the knowledge of drawing was as familiar as that of letters; and how can we suppose it was not like the latter, an element of their education? The wonders of invention and science which shine not only in the relics of their sculpture, but in their utensils, their furniture, in every article they used, attest that their acquaintance with drawing was as extended as that with writing. There was more poetry with them, in the handle of a saucepan, or in the Simplest pitcher, than in the ornaments of our palaces.
