Six lectures on painting : delivered to the students of the Royal Academy of Arts in London, January 1904

Clausen, George, 1852-1944 · 1906 · London : Methuen · 16 pictures

A set of six lectures on painting given by the artist George Clausen to students of the Royal Academy of Arts in London in January 1904, published by Methuen in 1906. The plates reproduce paintings and drawings chosen to illustrate points about tone, composition and figure, and a designer can use them to study how light is handled in the images. The rotated scans show a dim interior with a lamp, a seated woman with a child, a supper scene, and a classical harbour view with a ship.
