Synopsis Water Color Painting; a Book of Elementary Instruction for Beginners and Amateurs by : Grace Barton Allen
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ... There is no branch of art in which it is possible to do good work without study and experience; but there is a great difference in difficulty between various branches, and the amateur is, as a rule, more successful in Flower, Fruit, and Still Life painting than in anything else, because these are the simplest, and require the least amount of knowledge. Of the three, Flower painting is the most difficult, because flowers alter more or less all the time that they are being painted, shifting their position, changing color, opening, closing, or wilting; while many kinds of fruit, and all still life remain exactly the same. By still life are meant glass, pottery, bric-a-brac, and other manufactured articles. Vegetables and nuts may be considered as belonging to the same class as fruit, while fish and game are animals. Flowers are very frequently combined, in pictures, with still life and drapery, and the flower painter must, therefore, know how to paint the latter two, which will seem comparatively simple to him after he understands the former. As was said in the Introduction, the instruction given here will be for painting flowers by means of moderately wet washes placed upon dry paper; a method that gives a more realistic, crisp effect than that of painting upon a continuously wet surface. The originals of all the little flower headings and tail-pieces in this book were painted upon dry paper. In order to paint anything well, the artist must have a natural interest in that particular thing, and an appreciative sense of its characteristics. A man who really cares for flowers, and has observed them for their own sake, will paint them much better than a man who is indifferent to them. If, as was the case with Peter Bell, the Potter, -- "A...

Synopsis The Topkapi Scroll by : Gülru Necipoğlu
Since precious few architectural drawings and no theoretical treatises on architecture remain from the premodern Islamic world, the Timurid pattern scroll in the collection of the Topkapi Palace Museum Library is an exceedingly rich and valuable source of information. In the course of her in-depth analysis of this scroll dating from the late fifteenth or early sixteenth century, Gülru Necipoğlu throws new light on the conceptualization, recording, and transmission of architectural design in the Islamic world between the tenth and sixteenth centuries. Her text has particularly far-reaching implications for recent discussions on vision, subjectivity, and the semiotics of abstract representation. She also compares the Islamic understanding of geometry with that found in medieval Western art, making this book particularly valuable for all historians and critics of architecture. The scroll, with its 114 individual geometric patterns for wall surfaces and vaulting, is reproduced entirely in color in this elegant, large-format volume. An extensive catalogue includes illustrations showing the underlying geometries (in the form of incised “dead” drawings) from which the individual patterns are generated. An essay by Mohammad al-Asad discusses the geometry of the muqarnas and demonstrates by means of CAD drawings how one of the scroll’s patterns could be used co design a three-dimensional vault.
