A treatise on the laws governing proportional form in both nature and the arts and
sciences, this well-illustrated volume amply demonstrates how a design s geometrical
construction can captivate both the eye and the mind. Flowers, shells, and other
natural organisms appear here, along with artistic creations, in a mathematical study of
the similarity of their constructive principles. These principles, in turn, are the
fundamental elements by which nature creates harmony.The author, Samuel Colman
(1832–1920), was a prominent member of the Hudson River School of painters
("Storm King on the Hudson," his 1866 oil on canvas, is one of his best-known works),
and an embodiment through his life and work of the school s celebration of nature
through art. As an activist in the politics of art, Colman helped form the Society of
American Artists as well as the American Society of Painters in Water Colors, a
relatively new medium at the time. He was also a teacher and associate of Louis
Comfort Tiffany; in 1879, the two joined forces to establish an interior design firm that
included Mark Twain among its clientele.This handsome and provocative volume is
enhanced by 302 drawings by the author that complement and amplify each subject
