An atelier is a snobby word for an artist’s workshop space. The word studio is from the Italian: studio, and from Latin: studium, from studere, meaning to study or zeal. The word atelier is French for workshop, especially the workroom or studio of a sculptor or painter, 1840, from French atelier, going back to the Old French astelier which was a carpenter’s workshop, woodpile (14c.).

…If you’re a regular V. Notes reader, you know I love posting collections like “drawings of artist’s studios.” I am a little short on time today, and disappointed that I didn’t find more drawings of studios in the time I had available. I did see a few other drawings of studios, but they were all white men, and you may have noticed they are already well represented in this post. They were also very similar to the drawings above, so didn’t seem to add much to the collection. If you find a drawing of a studio, especially a drawing that is visually different than what is above, and/or made by an under-represented artist, please send it to me, or use the comments section below this post and tell me how I can find it. It may end up in a future V. Note. Thanks!
