This vintage book contains a fantastic guide to drawing presented in the form of three letters. This accessible and profusely illustrated volume aims to cover all the fundamental principles of drawing and is highly recommended for beginners and students. Contents include: "Letter I-On First Practice", "Letter II-Sketching from Nature", "Letter III-On Colour and Composition", "Appendix I", "Illustrative Notes", "Appendix II", "Things to be Studied", "Collation and Index", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
