Lessons on decorative design
Lessons on decorative design is a 1908 London instructional book by Frank G. Jackson, published by Chapman & Hall, intended for students learning ornament. Its numbered plates show stylised foliage, scrolls, acanthus leaves and fleur-de-lis motifs drawn in fine black line on plain paper. A designer could draw on these as ready-made border, panel and capital motifs that adapt well to period or classical styling.
