The two women artists who wrote and illustrated this manual regularly exhibited at London’s Royal Academy. The text advises using a soft pencil to establish proportions, then using a finer point, and finally introducing layers of watercolors. Suggested colors are noted opposite progressive images, with the figure shown here partly finished.
