The author analyzes the role of esthetic component in the course of training in the academic drawing. The esthetic perception of objects for imaging in the academic drawing is formed in the course of contact of the student with esthetically significant objects and phenomena, expressed in finding the characteristics, harmony and beauty of the represented that is one of elements of esthetic development of the world. In the article, it is noted that any image can be based on knowledge and understanding of the beauty of the world around and the culture of graphic expressiveness. The practice of training in the academic drawing is based on identification of essence of esthetic process, determination of its place in art, as well as determination of the basic principles of esthetic shaping. In the course of imaging, the esthetic assessment of objects and phenomena is always connected with possible means of imaging. In this case, the esthetic taste and the sense of proportion serve as a certain reference point for the artist during transferring of a contemplative artistic image to a concrete material form. Therefore, the formation in the course of training of such esthetic categories as esthetic taste and the sense of proportion has a paramount value. In the article, it is especially noted that the academic drawing is a type of esthetic expediency, and it is created by the principle of esthetic harmonization. Harmony is considered as one of the main categories of esthetics. The specificity of esthetic harmony is that it is inseparably linked with the qualities and characteristics of a subject (measure, symmetry, proportionality, harmony, integrity, etc.). Esthetic harmony is the sensory perception of an object for imaging according to the values, requirements, artist's opportunities; it is also inseparable from the process of graphic activity, which task consists in creation of esthetic expressiveness on the picture plane.
