Excerpt from The Artist's Point of View, Embraced in a Series of Letters on Landscape Painting and Kindred TopicsOf those underlying principles of art, whatever knowledge I have has been ac quired by studying carefully the best as well as the worst efforts of recognized artists, and through the reading of good books treating of art, along with that which may have come to me during a limited course of academic studies in drawing. To acquire any sort of proficiency in draughtsmanship, you should if possible attend a regular art school for a year or two at least, if unable to do this, then do the best you can without it. It goes without saying that the careful study of all grades of pictures, more especially of good ones, and the perusal of books on art, must prove beneficial to the young painter.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
