Présentation de l'éditeur

The object of these books has been already thoroughly described ;how to use them to tinfull advantage, and how to obtain the best results, is a matter of much greater importance, and tinfollowing suggestions are, therefore, offered for the students guidance. In the first place, the Nature Drawings may be considered simply as Freehand examples to I ncopied and finished in pencil outline, or sketched in pencil, and finished with a pen or brush outline, and should be drawn larger than the example in every case. Plate I. of Book I. has the chief figure drawn in a broader line than the other plates. This is done in order to show the strength to aim at for a brush-line, and the variations of thickness so readily obtained by the flexible or soft point.
