Excerpt from The Painter's Manual: Containing the Best Methods and the Latest Improvements in the Various Branches of the Art, Also, Principles of Glass Staining, Harmony and Contrast of Colors, Analysis of Color

IT is not proposed in the following pages to compile a work of valuable recipes, which, if followed, would lead the learner into vague uncertainties instead of giving him any light on the subject. Works on decorative art are not generally written by practical men, and consequently are of no practical utility. But this Painter's Manual it is hoped will be found to contain the very best meth ods of practice in all that pertains to general painting, which methods are given in as plain and concise a manner.
