and Kyps J , which are admirable. The best architects 

 have good plans with faint colours, and a course of study 

 with one of these professional men would be the most 

 satisfactory way to gain knowledge in this respect. Should 



this not be feasible, then study at 

 the South Kensington Museum 

 in the Engraving Department the 

 colours used in " Mural Painting 

 in Italy " (No. 2396 in the Cata- 

 logue). In this collection, the 

 one of Castello di Pandino, near 

 Lodi, is well and evenly coloured, 

 not too strong in tone. With 

 the aid of this collection a student 

 may well decide upon a colour 

 scheme of her own to be used 

 upon plans. 



In all the work here mentioned no fixed rules can be 

 laid down. Success depends upon study of Old Masters, 

 imagination, careful restraint, and love of the work. 

 These are the qualities which bring out personality in 

 plan-drawing.
