BROWN, Richard — The principles of practical perspective

Samuel Leigh 1st ed Used - Acceptable. Poor hardback in half-leather "or, scenographic projection: containing universal rules for delineating designs on various surfaces, and taking views from nature, by the most simple and expeditious methods. to which are added, rules for shadowing, and the elements of painting". Only 49 of 51 plates present - lacking plates 25 & 39; one of these must presumably be the colour frontis which is missing, along with the half-title. All plates have 'tide-mark' from damp-staining. Some damp-staining on pages; loss to front free end paper; hinges cracked; leather worn & brittle on spine with tear & some loss, & worn at board corners; marbled paper-covered boards worn at edges & scuffed Photo:http://cibimages.blob.core.windows.net/img-1/orig_17990_jpg.jpg
