Ars pictoria : or, An academy treating of drawing, painting, limning and etching : to which are added thirty copper plates expressing the choicest, nearest, and most exact grounds and rules of symmetry
Alexander Browne's Ars pictoria, printed in London in 1669 for artists and gentlemen amateurs, teaches drawing, painting, limning and etching through thirty engraved plates cut by Arnold de Jode after Odoardo Fialetti. The plates group body parts across the page—hands, feet, arms, children's heads and whole infants—drawn in fine hatched outline against blank ground, ready as cut-out figure studies or anatomical spot art.
