Taschenbuch für junge Zeichner und Mahler zum Unterricht und zur Uebung in der Zeichenkunst: Mit zwanzig schwarzen und vier illuminirten Kupfern

1795 · 18 pictures

A late eighteenth-century German drawing manual of 1795, a pocket sketchbook for young draughtsmen and painters, issued with twenty black and four coloured copper engravings for teaching and practice in drawing. The plates shown are etched landscapes, a rock arch framing a distant town, and character heads in bold hatched shadow, offering a designer examples of tonal modelling through cross-hatching and stipple.
