abstract: The rare first edition. “It seems to have been generally accepted that learning perspective, though necessary, was a bore. Charles Hayter, with this in mind, sugared the pill in his Introduction to perspective by presenting it as ‘a series of familiar dialogues between the author’s children, George, Anne, Eliza and John’ carefully adapted for the ‘Instruction of Females and suited equally to the Simplicity of Youth and to Mental Maturity.” - Bicknell & Munro, Drawing masters and their manuals 1800-1860, no. 40 (exhibiting the third edition of 1820).(Charles Wood, cat. 167, # 183)
