About this book

Children's Art: A Study of Normal Development in Children's Modes of Visualizationby Miriam Lindstrom offers a comprehensive examination of children's artistic expression as a window into cognitive and emotional development. The text provides an empirical study of how children's art reflects their evolving modes of perception and understanding, capturing distinct developmental stages through visual expression. Drawing from nearly two decades of observations at the San Francisco Museum of Art and the M.H. de Young Museum, Lindstrom's analysis highlights the nuances of children's visual symbolism, which she posits as a foundational process of thought akin to verbal language. Through selected illustrations, Lindstrom demonstrates the progression of children's imagery, emphasizing its value as both an educational tool and a psychological lens into children's evolving relationship with the world. Lindstrom's work situates children's art within a developmental framework, arguing that young artists' visual productions are not merely playful but indicative of significant cognitive and affective processes. The study elucidates how early, rudimentary marks evolve into increasingly symbolic representations, revealing underlying mechanisms of comprehension and communication. Lindstrom suggests that children's engagement in visual symbolism—parallel to early verbal development—serves as a critical means of internalizing and expressing experience. This monograph, therefore, not only provides educators and researchers with a methodology for understanding children's artwork but also contributes to broader inquiries into the intersection of visual, cognitive, and emotional growth. Lindstrom's analysis foregrounds the unique epistemological value of children's art, urging a reevaluation of its role within developmental psychology and early childhood education. This title was originally published in 1957.
