tiful Engravings, from original Designs, made on purpoSe by
Messrs. Craig And Corbould: With these 'claims to pre-

ANew Discovery. of a most Advantageous Nature
in the Art of PAINTING in OIL COLOURS has
just been made, by which Method a Professor is enabled to
begin and finish in one day a Painting on which otherwise he.
would haV.e to spend weeks, and then not bring out that ex-
traordinary grand cad • this New Invention produces. The.
preservation of
.brilliancy,of Colours and Sweetness of Tints
this New System yields are not to be expressed by words, but
can only he admired when looked at : besides the durability
Which the nature of.the process inlaying on theColours re-
quires, we may presume to say, that a Painting done in this
new manner will preserve its originality to the last_thread of
the canvas. As this most charming assay and stride to the
perfeaion of the Art of Painting will stamp a charader on
the English and German Schools, and must insure consider-
able interest to the Nations loud of the Fine Arts, it is hoped
Mr. Coblenz's labour and researches in' bringing about this
New System will not remain unrewarded by • Britons, to
whom, he will disclose the secret first, whFocalled upon by
proper authority: To prevent misunderstanding, and useless
trouble in answering questions, 'the Specimens, which are
ready, will net be shewn to any Persons but to those who
will !lave the goodnessto"patronize and become Subscribers
'towards the Exhibition which is now tbtining, to complete
which pecuniary assistance becomes unavoidably necessary.
