фигурный класс
form class


Explanation:
Из того, что я слышал и читал про фигурный класс, я понимаю его как базовый курс, где ученики рисуют гипсовые слепки, учебные модели и предметы.
Life class (или, более узко, Model class) в нашей системе называется натурным классом: это следующая ступень обучения.
"Kandinsky's basic form class resembled the program he had taught at the Russian Institute of Artistic Culture starting in 1920..."
