A Victorian instructional manual on watercolour landscape by George Barnard, drawing master at Rugby School, published by Routledge in London and New York in 1885 for amateur and student painters. Its plates run from pen-and-ink woodcut studies of foliage, tree trunks and broken ground to tinted lithographs of alpine passes and glaciers, offering ready-made hatching textures, skeletal tree structures and flat two- and three-colour landscape schemes.
