John Gadsby Chapman

The American Drawing-book John Gadsby Chapman

Originally publiished in 1847 this classic book contains a guide to drawing, aimed at both the amateur and professional. This book would be great for anyone wishing to learn a more classic style of drawing, but also for the beginner as it has much to teach about the basic principles of the art. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
