drawing instruments

The University of Dundee also holds an archive of drawing instruments belonging to Professor J E A Steggall.

Thomas Deckker believed that an exhibition of drawing instruments could be tied into a programme of beautiful drawing, whether by hand or by computer.

Drawing Systems shows the development of projections in art and architecture and the conceptual principles these bring.

RIBA: Drawing Instruments

The catalogue of an exhibition of drawing instruments at the sadly defunct Heniz Gallery, London. The work exhibited spanned from the beautiful instruments of the renaissance and enlightenment to early CAD systems.

The RIBA drawings collection has moved to the V&A.
Science Museum: Calculating Machine and Instruments
Science Museum: Calculating Machine and Instruments

The catalogue of the collection of calculating machine and instruments, analogous in many ways to drawing instruments, in the Science Museum, London. Sadly the Science Museum has chosen to remove much of this collection from display in favour of infantile and patronising interpretive displays.

National Maritime Museum: The Planispheric Astrolabe

The planispheric astrolabe was an early navigation instrument, a forerunner of the sextant. This catalogue comes from a time when the National Maritime Museum was interested in martime history rather than political ideology, and these are no longer on display.
