Anleitung zur Zeichenkunst: besonders für diejenigen, die ohne Lehrer dieselbe lernen, so auch für Eltern, die ihre Kinder darin selbst unterrichten wollen: enthaltend 24 große Vorlegeblätter von 11 Zoll, nebst 7 andern Blättern und dem Plan zu meiner Schultafel für Schullehrer etc.
Anleitung zur Zeichenkunst is a German drawing manual by Peter Schmid, published in 1813 and held by Heidelberg University Library, written for self-taught learners and parents teaching children at home. Its plates show geometric solids drawn in perspective, architectural still lifes of blocks, cylinders and a sphere, and a one-point perspective room with construction lines, which a designer could use as a reference for shading simple forms and vanishing-point layouts.
