Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progressive Design for Students This Work on Ornamental Design, as its title indicates, consists of a series of "Progressive" Lessons in Elementary and Applied Design, such as a Master might give to a class of pupils who are desirous to obtain a knowledge of the subject. The author has practised the method laid down in the book when giving instruction to classes in the elementary and advanced stages of design, and has found that the course of study therein recommended has produced some fairly satisfactory results. The illustrations and examples of design are all based on Nature, and have been conventionalised or treated to suit the requirements of the space or object to which the decoration is applied. It is to be hoped that the book will be useful to Masters of our Primary Schools when instructing large classes in rudimentary design, and to Students and Masters of Art Schools and Classes also, from the progressive nature of the studies illustrated and explained.
