Synopsis

Excerpt from Light and Shade: With Chapters on Charcoal, Pencil, and Brush Drawing

The text-books of the National Drawing Course are intended particularly for public school teachers; but this book is written, not only for public school teachers, but for all art students and others interested in art education. It supplements the first book of the series("Free-Hand Drawing"), and shows how the methods explained in it may be applied in the study of light and shade.

Good instruction in drawing must be based upon the principles which underlie the best in art, and therefore any book which is intended for the student and elementary teacher must present these principles, and must also show how students may be led to see, think, and work independently.

The books "Free-Hand Drawing," "Mechanical Drawing," and "Color Study" form a necessary part of the National Drawing Course, as they contain the lessons in these different subjects which are to be given according to the order specified in the teachers "Outlines of Lessons." "Light and Shade" contains no lessons or other work called for in the plan of study of the present system, for it is not considered wise to attempt light and shade in the public schools until pupils have gained more ability in free-hand drawing than they now generally acquire below the high school.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
