The Art Of Drawing And Colouring, From Nature, Birds, Beasts, Fishes, And Insects: With Plain And Coloured Drawings, From Original Paintings By Morland, Vernet, Howet, Le Cave, &c.
An 1830 drawing manual by Nathaniel Whittock, published for students learning to draw and colour animals from nature, and drawn from original paintings by Morland, Vernet and others. The pictures are engraved plates of animals, both plain line drawings and hand-coloured versions. A designer might take from them the economical hatching used to render fur, grass and shadow, and the way colour washes sit over a pencil-like linework.
