Modelling; a guide for teachers and students . easurements of thehead in respect to the other parts, it will be easy to establishthe first measurements necessary for the construction. Inthe list of comparative measurements will be found somewhich are only of secondary importance. The measurementsof construction will be fixed, as in the case of the previousstudies. These measurements differ naturally according to breeds,but they may be used as a guide in a purely decorativework. If it is a question of portraiture, it will be necessaryto follow exactly those given by the model, for we must neverforget that it is the proportions proper to the individualwhich alone give its character and its type. I will add nothing as regards the execution to that whichI have said for the other studies. And to sum up : beginalways with the attitude, establish very firmly the greatplanes with a little clay, keeping well within the volume ofthe model, fix on this preparation the proportions whichenable one to find the construction, apply over the large.
