A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Preface QTHE intention of this book is to assist the workers in A the many arts that are concerned with heraldry, in varying degrees, by putting before them as simply as possible the essential principles of heraldic art. In this way it is hoped to contribute to the improvement in the treatment of heraldry that is already evident, as a result of the renewed recognition of its ornamental and historic importance, but which still leaves so much to be desired. It is hoped that not only artists but also those who are, or may become, interested in this attractive subject -in other ways, will find herein some helpful information and direction. So that the work of the artist and the !judgment and appreciation of the public may alike beS furthered by a knowledge of the factors that go to make up heraldic design and of the technique of various methods of carrying it into execution. AT othis end the illustrations have been selected from a wide range of subjects and concise descriptions of the Jvarious processes have been included.
