Description
A painting book entitled The Easy Painting Book, published by Frederick Warne & Co., London and New York. The front cover shows two children painting the title of the book on a wall.

The majority of the images have been painted in, using watercolor, and some of the blank pages have been used to paint original images. There are some images done in outline form with a corresponding color image to guide the student. A ""500"" is penciled in on the upper-right corner of the title page.
