Horsley Hinton is a guidebook focusing on methods and techniques for illustration, likely written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the significance and evolution of illustration, particularly in light of advances in photography and print technology. It explores various forms of illustration, including maps, scientific diagrams, and artistic renderings, while elucidating their roles as adjuncts to text in literature and other media. The opening of the handbook introduces the context of the art of illustration, discussing its historical roots and the influence of photography on modern practices. Hinton emphasizes the importance of accuracy and clarity in illustration, arguing against the trend of prioritizing aesthetics over informative representation. He outlines the fundamental purpose of illustration as a means to effectively convey thought in ways that words alone cannot, and he lays the groundwork for exploring diverse methods and techniques for effective visual expression throughout the book.
