The tendency of the American people to study art marks an era in our intellectual life. Students of art multiply rapidly: art-schools are well filled, and private teachers are in great demand. All branches of art are receiving attention, and especially the industrial department. 
 
There are two sources of art-instruction, - the teacher, and nature. There are also two methods of practice, - working from copies, and working from nature. Multitudes of private pupils do nothing but copy the work of others, and consequently they never acquire the power to produce original work themselves. The two methods may be combined, but nature must always be regarded as the great instructor. We can do no greater service to our pupils than to prepare them to learn from nature, to open their eyes and minds to the harmonies and melodies which she has in ample store for them. 
 
There is no department of public instruction better adapted to the development of the powers of observation than drawing from objects.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed guide to representing three-dimensional objects on a flat surface. It is an invaluable resource for artists and art students, guiding them through the process of accurately capturing the apparent forms of objects as they appear to the human eye. Beginning with basic principles of geometry, including lines, surfaces, and volumes, the book systematically progresses to more complex topics such as the measurement and analysis of angles, the effects of light and shade, and the representation of spheres, cones, and other curved surfaces. Through clear explanations and numerous illustrations, the author demonstrates how to break down complex objects into simpler forms, enabling readers to understand and execute accurate drawings. This book is not only a practical guide but also explores the theoretical foundations of perspective and object representation, providing a deeper understanding of the underlying principles that govern the visual perception of three-dimensional space. By mastering the techniques and concepts presented in this book, artists can develop the skills necessary to create realistic and compelling drawings of the world around them.
