Synopsis "Guide for Drawing the Acanthus, and Every Description of Ornamental Foliage"
This vintage book contains a comprehensive guide to drawing, carving, and etching flowers for ornamental purposes. With simple, step-by-step instructions and detailed diagrams, this volume is ideal for those without much experience who have a desire to learn how to create beautiful floral motifs using a number of mediums. Contents include: "History and Rules for Drawing the Acanthus Mollis, Perpendicularly", "Rules and Practice for Drawing Curvilinear Foliage, as Adapted to Running Scrolls and Cornthian Chapters", "On Starting Points", "On Grecian and Roman Ornament", "On the Designing of Trophies", "On Swords and Other Arms", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on metal work.
