The paper considers the subject of children's drawings and how their work can be viewed as an indicator of psychological development. The research assembles a large collection of literature and sources, and considers in particular the cognitive stage theory of drawing development, which originated from a theory by Luquet in 1927, and adapted by Piaget. The theory is critically analysed, firstly by an examination of Luquet and, secondly, by explaining Piaget's contribution. Luquet advances the notion of intellectual realism – representations of the world which are successful to a certain degree, as adults can recognise what the child has drawn, but are not entirely successful as the view of the object is unrealistic. The theorist, Messer, writing in 1999 indicates how such drawings represent what the child knows about an object intellectually, rather than what he or she actually sees. The paper presents an all-encompassing overview of a much-discussed area of psychological and child research.
