| Summary |
"In this third part of our practical manual we address ourselves to those who already know how to paint, and who have followed the advice given in the two preceding Parts. At all times beginners will find Parts I. and II. useful to refer to as giving the first principles of the art of painting. -- We will give the different methods employed in the composition of each branch, and all necessary receipts for combating difficulties and inconveniences which may present themselves during the execution of a picture." -- preliminary remarks page [7] |
