A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The Art of Graining was compiled in 1890 and then published in Messrs. Cassell Co. s English technical magazine, Work. The manyevidences of its usefulness to British apprentices and painters which the author received at that time prompted its revision and re-issue in Tie JV esfern Painter and subsequently in the present cheap volume form. In the supplementary chapters various practical issues and processes are discussed, which have special bearing upon modern imitative work and decorative ideas. The illustrations, being limited to effects in black and white, were prepared for and are to be considered only as, aids to the descriptive matter. The supplement of actual painted grounds for graining may be taken as evidence of the useful character of the work and of the practical knowledge and experience of the compiler. The authors obligations are hereby expressed to Messrs. Cassell Co. (lyimited), lyondon, for reserving to him the copyright in volume form, and also to Harrison Bros. Co., of Philadelphia, for contributing the valuable painted supplement. FREDERICK PARSONS. Boston, Mass., Nov. 30, 1S95.
