Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook for Painters and Art Students on the Character, Nature, and Use of Colours, Their Permanent, or Fugitive Qualities, and the Vehicles Proper to Employ: With an Appendix, Giving Permanent Hues and Tints; Also Short Remarks on the Practice of Painting in Oil and Water Colours The present Handbook is intended to supply, in a ready and conc18e form, what is required in this direction. The durability of a picture ought to be a matter of conscientious consideration with every painter. If he does not employ ordinary precaution in order to prevent, or modify those changes which may take place in his works, sooner or later, after they leave his hands, he is to a great extent responsible, if not indeed culpable. The purchasers of pictures rarely consider this question. It therefore becomes all the more impera tive on the painter's part, that he should thoroughly deal with it as a necessary part of his education and practice, or 111 Ignorance he may lay himself open to the charge Of supplying to his patron, that which he did not bargain for. It is frequently discovered that the work which has been so well paid for in many cases, is visibly deteriorating every year, and almost every day. Suggestions are Offered in this manual on various other matters connected with the practice Of art. They have grown out of many years' experience as a painter, as well as a long intercourse with students. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The appearance of this book is timely, and the author's practical experience gives to it a high and peculiar value. Mr. Muckley has arranged his materials with care and tact, and thus afforded the student ready access to the fruits of his experience. Summaries of permanent, semi-permanent, and fugitive pigments are offered, and their utility is obvious. We notice among the permanent pigments is orange vermilion, the very colour which, in a highly commendatory letter acknowledging the dedication of the book to himself, is denounced by Mr. Poynter as not only dangerous, from the uncertainty attending the "preparation," but unnecessary, and destructive, moreover, of the purity and delicacy of the tints. Opinions may, and do, differ extremely as to the latter part of this assertion of the R.A.'s, but it is unfortunate that these doctors should differ in so important a point as the true character of a pigment which stands nearly at the top of the scale of brilliancy. Again, Indian red is admitted into the category of pigments which are permanent in oil or water. We fear the ghosts of Robson and Barret could tell Mr. Muckley a different tale, especially when they saw what happens to this colour in combination with Antwerp blue. The last pigment is included with those of the second order of permanence, but we should rather rank it in the third-that is, among the fugitive materials. We are glad to see that Strontian and Orient yellows are denounced. Pure linseed oil is recommended; but how are you to get it? We are told that Messrs. Mander Brothers, of Wolverhampton, have made arrangements to prepare pure copal and amber varnishes for painters' use. Let us see what the new Guild of Colour-makers, "Limited," will do for artists.-"The Athenaeum," Volume 76 [1880]
