Sinopsis

'Lessons in Art' is a fantastic vintage guide to drawing and illustration written by Hume Nisbet. James Hume Nisbet (1849 - 1923) was a Scottish-born artist and novel writer famous for his thrillers set in Australia. Contents include: 'Drawing Materials', 'Perpendicular, Horizontal and Slanting Lines', 'Ornamental Drawing', 'Drawing from Nature', 'Rules of Perspective', 'Measuring Tree- Work, &c', 'Proportions of the Human Figure', 'On Shading', 'Charcoal Drawing', 'Pen and Ink Etching', etc. Other notable works by this author include: 'The Land of the Hibiscus Blossom: A Yarn of the Papuan Gulf' (1888), 'Doctor Bernard St. Vincent: A Sensational Romance of Sydney' (1889), and 'Ashes: A Tale of Two Spheres' (1890). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on drawing and illustration.
