A course of lectures on drawing, painting and engraving : considered as branches of elegant education, delivered in the saloon of the Royal Institution in successive seasons, and read subsequently at the Russell Institution
A course of lectures by William Marshall Craig, delivered at the Royal Institution in London and published there in 1821 by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Brown, aimed at gentlemen and ladies receiving an elegant education in drawing, painting and engraving. The plates show a bearded male head in several stages of shading, from a soft wash study to crisp outline engraving, which a designer could use as a reference for tonal build-up in portrait heads.
