Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This guidebook for those wishing to learn or improve their drawing abilities, was written by a renowned artist who believed the ability to draw could be mastered by anyone with the dedication to follow his instructions. Written at a time where fashionable drawing room accomplishments were often superficial and taught without regard to genuine artistic principles, the author presents a revolutionary method of learning. Rather than focusing on creating pretty or showy renderings, the author stresses the importance of first developing keen observation and technical skill. The book's radical yet accessible teachings cover a wide range of topics including line, shape, light, and shade, as well as perspective and composition. Aspiring artists are encouraged to study and copy the works of the great masters, and cautioned against the dangers of imitating the shallow techniques so often taught in the era. By emphasizing the fundamentals and encouraging a deep understanding of the subject, this book challenges the established norms of art education, providing an invaluable resource for aspiring draughtsmen and a refreshing perspective on artistic training. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334038716_0
