Book excerpt: IT is much easier to understand and remember a thing when a reason is given for it, than when we are merely shown how to do it without being told why it is so done; for in the latter case, instead of being assisted by reason, our real help in all study, we have to rely upon memory or our power of imitation, and to do simply as we are told without thinking about it. The consequence is that at the very first difficulty we are left to flounder about in the dark, or to remain inactive till the master comes to our assistance. Now in this book it is proposed to enlist the reasoning faculty from the very first: to let one problem grow out of another and to be dependent on the foregoing, as in geometry, and so to explain each thing we do that there shall be no doubt in the mind as to the correctness of the proceeding. The student will thus gain the power of finding out any new problem for himself, and will therefore acquire a true knowledge of perspective. George Adolphus Storey Book First The Necessity of the Study of Perspective to Painters, Sculptors, and Architects LEONARDO DA VINCI tells us in his celebrated Treatise on Painting that the young artist should first of all learn perspective, that is to say, he should first of all learn that he has to depict on a flat surface objects which are in relief or distant one from the other; for this is the simple art of painting. Objects appear smaller at a distance than near to us, so by drawing them thus we give depth to our canvas. The outline of a ball is a mere flat circle, but with proper shading we make it appear round, and this is the perspective of light and shade. 'The next thing to be considered is the effect of the atmosphere and light. If two figures are in the same coloured dress, and are standing one behind the other, then they should be of slightly different tone, so as to separate them. And in like manner, according to the distance of the mountains in a landscape and the greater or less density of the air, so do we depict space between them, not only making them smaller in outline, but less distinct.' Sir Edwin Landseer used to say that in looking at a figure in a picture he liked to feel that he could walk round it, and this exactly expresses the impression that the true art of painting should make upon the spectator. There is another observation of Leonardo's that it is well I should here transcribe; he says: 'Many are desirous of learning to draw, and are very fond of it, who are notwithstanding void of a proper disposition for it. This may be known by their want of perseverance; like boys who draw everything in a hurry, never finishing or shadowing.' This shows they do not care for their work, and all instruction is thrown away upon them. At the present time there is too much of this 'everything in a hurry', and beginning in this way leads only to failure and disappointment. These observations apply equally to perspective as to drawing and painting. Unfortunately, this study is too often neglected by our painters, some of them even complacently confessing their ignorance of it; while the ordinary student either turns from it with distaste, or only endures going through it with a view to passing an examination, little thinking of what value it will be to him in working out his pictures. Whether the manner of teaching perspective is the cause of this dislike for it, I cannot say; but certainly most of our English books on the subject are anything but attractive. All the great masters of painting have also been masters of perspective, for they knew that without it, it would be impossible to carry out their grand compositions. In many cases they were even inspired by it in choosing their subjects. When one looks at those sunny interiors, those corridors and courtyards by De Hooghe, with their figures far off and near, one feels that their charm consists greatly in their perspective, as well as in their light and tone and colour...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE. BR> THE Author, in introducing this work to the public, feels that, notwithstanding the many books on the subject already existing, there is still room for one that comprises the whole course of Perspective treated in a comprehensive manner, with the allied subjects of Projection of Shadows and Reflections. BR> The Art of Perspective is one in which the Author has had many years' experience, both as a teacher as well as in its practical application; he consequently feels that he is not unqualified to deal with this subject in all its branches. BR> The design of the work is to provide information on Perspective to every class; to those who require the rudiments of the subject, as well as to those who desire a complete course of instruction. There are many students desirous of obtaining sufficient knowledge of Perspective to enable them to sketch correctly, and to test the accuracy of their drawings, but at the same time with a strong aversion to plodding through a series of dry problems to obtain this information. To meet the requirements of this class of students, the whole subject has been explained in the form of an introduction in simple language, with illustrations from familiar objects-the elementary portion in Chapter II.; and the more advanced part of the subject in Chapter IX. If these chapters are carefully studied, they will impart sufficient knowledge of the principles of the subject to enable them to utilise the laws of perspective. BR> Those, on the other hand, who require a thorough course will find it in Chapters II.-XI. BR> Another portion of the work is devoted to the practical application of perspective, and this the Author hopes will be found useful to Artists as well as to Students. The greater part of this information is the outcome of experience gained during many years of professional work; and it includes Aerial Perspective, Chapter XIII; Perspective Hints for Artists, Chapter XIV.; Perspective for Architects and Engineers, with the use of the Centrolinead, Chapter XV.; and Photographic Perspective, introducing a method for correcting the exaggerated perspective of photographs, Chapter XVI....
