520 _a"Drawing for Printers" by Ernest Knaufft is a practical treatise on the art of designing and illustrating in conjunction with typography, written in the late 19th century. The book serves as a comprehensive guide aimed at both beginners and those with some experience in drawing, providing a wealth of instructional content on drawing techniques and principles critical for printers seeking to improve their artistic skills. At the start of the work, the author emphasizes the increasing importance of design knowledge in the printing profession, noting that modern printers must not only be competent in typography but also in illustration. Knaufft outlines the goals of the text: to familiarize readers with essential design principles that they can practically apply, while addressing the common misunderstandings about drawing education. He uses a parable to highlight the necessity of developing observational skills over simply following instructions about materials, urging readers to cultivate the ability to see and interpret forms accurately in order to improve their drawing capabilities.
