Eloquent Images: Using Art To Teach American History.
Michlewitz, Debra
American Educator, v25 n4 p12-21 Win 2001
Paintings can fulfill many different pedagogical purposes. They can illuminate and bring to life historical events and characters. Paintings and other images can also make students aware of a point of view (the artist's commentary), which enriches and modifies the history they find in books and documents. This article provides examples of teaching history through art. (SM)
