95 pages

From dustjacket: This book, though written principally for youthful artists, will undoubtedly have a strong appeal to more experienced men. The "made easy" methods of construction and perspective worked out in these pages make those elementary stages of a drawing which usually are both difficult and discouraging, a pleasure and surprisingly simple.
