Notes

General Note
"Bonus interview with Scott McCloud"--Cover.
Description
"With grace, poetry, clarity, and expert knowledge, artist Etienne Appert brings us a book about the very origins of the art of illustration--what it means and why it exists. 'Why do you draw?' A simple question by a young boy moves the author to travel with him down the River of Ink, which flows from the present day back to the very first illustration drawn by a human. Along the way, they visit legendary artists of the past and encounter personal tales that explore the philosophy of communication through drawing. Why do we draw? It's a simple question with a spellbinding and complex answer with an entirely new and entertaining look at the history of art"--Page [4] of cover.
