J. D. HARDING’S WORKS. 
SKETCHES AT HOME AND ABROAD. 
This very beautiful Work consists of Sixty Views of the most interesting Scenes, 
selected from a large collection of Foreign and Domestic Sketches made by Mr. 
Harding, and executed by him in Lithography, in exact imitation of the original 
Drawings, as they were made upon the spot, with Black Lead Pencil upon tinted paper. 
The only addition to the original Sketches, which were made with scrupulous accu- 
racy, being the introduction of appropriate objects, and figures in correct costume, 
thus improving the compositions of the subjects as well as adding national character 
to local interest. 
In the “ Sketches at Home and Abroad,” Mr. Harding has applied a new 
mode of his own for introducing the whites in printing , instead of laying them on with 
the pencil. By this process a lasting effect is produced ; the tints thus obtained being 
permanent and free from the liability to dinginess, which has hitherto been such a 
fatal objection to their production in the usual manner. 
The collection embraces so great a variety of subjects, effects, and compositions, 
that it forms a series of examples of great service to the student and the amateur, and 
a complete illustration of the Author’s Treatise on the Black Lead Pencil. Imperial 
folio, half morocco, ^ 6 . 6 s. 
“ Harding’s Sketches at Home and Abroad is a capital work, containing some sixty or more of the very 
choicest sketches, made by an artist whose portfolio has long been the admiration of all beholders. To 
those who have travelled it will be a treasure-house of delight. Here northern Italy yields up its 
architectural glories and its lake scenery — Venice its palaces — the Tyrol its romantic valleys and villages, 
with offerings from Trent and Roveredo — the Rhenish cities their picturesque beauty — and France and 
England their greenest spots of remembrance.” Athenceum. 
HARDING’S PORTFOLIO; 
A Series of Twenty-four highly -finished Sketches , tinted in exact imitation 
of the original Drawings. 
“ Nothing can be better of their kind than Mr. Harding’s pencil sketches. In his portfolio for 1837, 
they are treated with his usual truth, and ease, and freedom, and will be found most valuable to the 
student.” Athenceum. 
ELEMENTARY ART;

THE USE OF THE LEAD PENCIL ADVOCATED AND 
EXPLAINED. 
This work is intended to teach the young student, and the amateur, by the practical 
use of the simplest but most valuable instrument in art — The Lead Pencil, how they 
may study Nature and acquire Art with the certainty of eventual success, and also to 
furnish them with the assistance to which they may continually refer in the absence 
of their master. The work is illustrated by twenty- eight Lithographic Drawings by

rience in actual instruction has suggested to him. Imperial 4to., neatly bound in cloth.
