Reader's note

Full of wonderful advice and diagrams, this fabulous vintage book tells you all about the history of this art form and how to take your hobby to the next level! The author remind us how painting scenery is a lot different to painting a picture - The amateur artist who sets out to paint a piece of scenery for the first time in his life will probably be far too painstaking in his work, or rather he will take the wrong kind of trouble over it. He must remember that all his work is to be viewed at a distance and under very peculiar conditions. There is a blaze of light from the ground upward and from the sky downward and frequently from both sides of the stage too. - read many more handy hints and tips and appreciate the theatre just that little bit more. This lovely old book is a great addition to any art room and a wonderful gift!
