Zeichenbuch für Liebhaber der freyen Landschaftszeichnung : worinn die Anfangsgründe derselben nach einer leichten und kurzen Art gezeiget werden
A 1783 drawing manual by Johann Kleinhard, published in Prague, teaching amateurs the basics of freehand landscape drawing through a short, easy method. The plates are engraved pages of sketched trees, shrubs, and small landscapes with ruins, buildings, and figures beside water, showing how foliage masses and tonal shading build up a scene; a designer could take from them the vocabulary of tree silhouettes and pale wash-like shading for natural forms.
