Publisher Description: Although written in 1913, this brilliant and authoritative guide to drawing is still highly relevant today. Speed, a highly regarded painter in his time, takes the student comprehensively through approaches, techniques and materials and illustrates them all with diagrams and paintings from both his contemporaries and the Masters. He also discusses various aspects of the science and philosophy of art, such as the use of proportion, the nature of talent and the definition of beauty. This handsome new edition from Benediction Classics contains all the original plates and diagrams and would be a great addition to the resources of any budding artist. |
