This book is an attempt to teach beginning students how to draw. Starting out with
intuition and vision, Harold Speed explains line and mass drawing, and how
rhythm is conveyed in art by means of balance and proportion. Everything is
pulled together in a chapter on portrait drawing, before the author gives hints on
materials and procedure. This manual was written in 1913, but because of the
intelligent combination of useful advice and sensitive reflection on the nature and
meaning of artistic practice, it has been considered a valuable resource for artists.
