To which are annexed, familiar directions, whereby a stranger in the art of drawing may be readily taught to delineate any view or prospect with the utmost exactness; of colouring any print or drawing in the most elegant manner; and of taking off medals, &c. instantly, after a variety of different ways never before made public; intermixed with curious receipts for the use of painters, statuaries, founders, &c. with instructions for preparing, mixing, and managing all sorts of water-colours used in painting, so as to represent nature in the greatest perfection.
