Excerpt from An Introduction to Linear Drawing: Translated From the French
Most of our faculties, when exercised, may attain to a surprising degree of perfection. A precision may be acquired by the eye and hand, almost equal to that of ordinary instruments. With this view, the society for the improvement of elementary instruction in France, directed some of their most distinguished members to procure a worlr on the art of drawing, which should be applied to the system of mutual instruction, there the national system. The following treatise is, in a great measure, a translation of that approved by them. It is not intended for a treatise on the art in all its numer ous branches, but merely the linear, and, of course, the fundamental and most useful part of it.
The geometrical figures are arranged according to the difficulty of their execution, rather than in the order of theorems.

An Introduction to Linear Drawing: Translated From the French (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a systematic geometric drawing course adapted for use in common schools. The author, a translator, found that most students who'd had drawing lessons could only copy existing drawings, but this book teaches the principles behind drawing and provides a wide range of problems and exercises for developing proficiency. Beginning with the most basic lines, angles, and triangles, the book progresses through polygons and polyhedra to circles, ellipses, and other complex shapes. It then applies these principles to architectural drawings, vases, and decorative elements. The author argues that geometry, when combined with decimal arithmetic, provides a simple and precise method of drawing that enables learners to develop the precision and accuracy necessary for many professions. 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. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781334014239_0
