A Treatise On Art, In Three Parts: Consisting Of Essays On The Education Of The Eye, Practical Hints On Composition, And Light And Shade is a book written by John Burnet and published in 1913. The book is a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of art, covering three main topics: the education of the eye, practical hints on composition, and light and shade.The first part of the book focuses on the education of the eye, which Burnet argues is the most important aspect of artistic training. He discusses the importance of studying and understanding the natural world, and provides practical advice on how to develop one's observational skills.The second part of the book provides practical hints on composition, covering topics such as balance, harmony, and rhythm. Burnet emphasizes the importance of understanding the principles of design and how to apply them in one's own work.The third and final part of the book is devoted to light and shade, which Burnet considers to be one of the most important aspects of art. He provides a detailed explanation of the principles of light and shade, and discusses how to use them to create depth and dimension in one's work.Overall, A Treatise On Art, In Three Parts is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the theory and practice of art. Burnet's clear and concise writing style, combined with his practical advice and insights, make this book an essential read for artists of all levels.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
