Easy Lessons In Landscape Drawing: Picturesque Old Houses, Cottages, Churches, Porches, Waterfalls, Bridges, Boats, Coats [!] Scenery, Etc., By Samuel Prout, Contained In Forty Plates, Coloured And Plain, Consisting Of 100 Studies.

Easy Lessons In Landscape Drawing is an 1819 instructional drawing manual by Samuel Prout, held by Heidelberg University Library, that teaches landscape sketching progressively from basic chalk technique to finished coloured scenes. The plates are etched studies of old houses, cottages, churches, bridges and trees, shown here rotated sideways on the page. A designer could take from them the economical use of hatching and dark masses to suggest ruined masonry, thatch and foliage.
