A Step-by-Step Manual
Mastering Copperplate Calligraphy by Eleanor Winters,p> Developed by English handwriting masters in the 18th century, copperplate calligraphy is admired for its fluidity and beauty. It is the most popular style for social correspondence, invitations and other communications requiring an elegant hand. In this practical guide, a noted calligraphy teacher offers a comprehensive step-by-step manual for the student. Beginning with a brief but fascinating history of copperplate, she moves quickly to an in-depth examination of the alphabet, numbers and punctuation. Each letterform is demonstrated stroke by stroke with a clear explanation. Readers will also find detailed discussions of writing in color, using the proper paper, and learning how to retouch, correct and crop. Ms. Winters then shows how copperplate can be used to write a simple paragraph, a short quotation, and a poem, and explains how to use the script commercially for addressing envelopes and writing name cards and invitations. With this easy-tofollow manual and some practice, Calligraphers will be able to create copperplate scripts with the rhythm, grace and ease of the great writing masters.
