‎edition of the collected works on the art of painting by the Scottish artist John Burnet (1784-1868), illustrated by himself. He dedicated the present work to Sir Thomas Lawrence, the President of the Royal Academy. It is divided into three parts: on composition, chiaroscuro (light and shadow), and colour. The text does not instruct the reader to paint but rather to understand painting, making this a manual for looking at paintings and an introduction to connoisseurship. Being able to converse about art had become an important part of social life for the upper class and this work would prove welcome for anybody who wished to be able to understand art better. It was a valuable work, in a luxurious binding and illustrated thoroughly, partly with coloured plates. Burnet was a respected artist who made all of the reproductions himself, for which he used a combination of etching, aquatint and hand-colouring. As examples Burnet used many famous paintings of Italian, Flemish and Dutch artists, such as Paulus Potter, Adriaan van Ostade, Claude, Rubens, Albert Cuyp, Ter Borch, Rembrandt, Pieter de Hooghe, Van Dyck, Gab. Metsu, Ger. Dou, Adr. van de Velde, David Teniers, Wouwermans, Hondecoeter, Frans Hals, Corregio, Raffael, Titian and Veronese. ‎
