Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of Sketching Landscape Scenery From Nature: Systematically Arranged, and Illustrated by Numerous Examples, From Simple and Easy Subjects, to the More Complicated and Difficult Combinations of Objects; In Four Parts The table being thus finished, a square box, as H, may be placed upon it, and represented by drawing the receding lines of the sides to the same Diminishing Point, C, the Point of Sight. Any other object, shaped like the table, may be placed on one side of it in the room, as at Fig. 4, P]. I], and drawn by the same rules as those just described. The square box S may also be placed upon it: and because this object stands on the right hand of the artist, whose station is always opposite to the Point of Sight, the side R is seen, and also the end S, of the box, which is represented by the receding lines inclining inwards in their progress towards their Diminishing Point, C the Point of Sight. The same practice will produce the representation of the Sofa, Fig. 5, and the same observations be equally applicable. The Figs. 3, 4, and 5, P]. I], should be immediately and carefully imitated from objects that resemble them in nature. The foregoing mode of practice is the more strongly recommended as being an immediate introduction to the drawing of buildings from nature, and ought not to be passed over without due attention but when the mind is sufficiently impressed with the principle by means of which the Operation is performed, then the examples in Plate III. May be resorted to. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ... This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
