In this essay I look at the art of children as a tool in the medical-pedagogical approach, as proposed by the founder of child psychiatry in Portugal, Vítor Fontes (1893-1979). First, the topic of the art of children is introduced, and the second part focuses on the model of medical pedagogy as it was practised in Portugal. The third and fourth parts present Fontes's own investigations on the drawings of children with intellectual disabilities under observation at the Instituto Médico-Pedagógico António Aurélio da Costa Ferreira (IAACF) in Lisbon. In the conclusion it is argued that Fontes contributed to the development of child psychiatry in Portugal by showing that children's art can mirror their cognitive and emotional development.
在这篇文章中，我探讨了儿童艺术作为葡萄牙儿童精神病学创始人 Vítor Fontes（1893-1979）提出的医学-教育学方法的工具。首先，介绍了儿童艺术的主题，第二部分则侧重于葡萄牙实践的医学教育学模式。第三和第四部分介绍了 Fontes 自己对在里斯本的 António Aurélio da Costa Ferreira 医学-教育学研究所（IAACF）观察的智障儿童绘画的研究。在结论中，作者认为 Fontes 通过展示儿童艺术可以反映他们的认知和情感发展，为葡萄牙儿童精神病学的发展做出了贡献。
