The illustrated London drawing book ...
A self-instruction drawing manual by Robert Scott Burn, issued in London by Ingram, Cooke and Co. in 1853 for students and amateur draughtsmen learning line, shading and perspective. The wood-engraved figures range from bare line exercises and lettered diagrams to ellipse constructions and hatched studies of arches and mouldings, offering ready-made hatching textures and geometric line patterns.
