Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Poore was born on March 21, 1859, in Newark, New Jersey, to Rev. Daniel Warren Poore and Susan Helen Poore née Ellis.
He spent his childhood in California and then studied at the University of Pennsylvania from 1881 to 1883, when the New York Times identified him as "a promising young Philadelphia painter" as it wrote approvingly of his illustrations for a new edition of The Night Before Christmas. He studied art at the Pennsylvania Academy and then at the National Academy of Art. He then studied in Paris where his teachers included Évariste Vital Luminais and William-Adolphe Bouguereau.
He was also a prolific illustrator, critic, and author on art and composition. Returning to the United States, he had a studio in Philadelphia. In 1891, working for the U.S. government, he produced illustrations of the life of the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico and wrote a report on their living conditions.
He painted hunting scenes in England in 1893. He also taught at the Chautauqua Art School and served as its director from 1896 to 1902. He taught at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts beginning in 1904.
He spent several summers at the Old Lyme Art Colony, which he helped found. His subjects ranged widely. he wielded a versatile brush and his exhibition reveals a catholicity of view which embraces with equal enthusiasm the hunting field, the New England farmer and the character revealed by the face before the portrait painter." He published Pictorial Composition and the Critical Judgment of Pictures in 1903, which he described as a "handbook for students and lovers of art". He recommended both painters and photographers to consider how to use the fundamental forms he presented to draw the viewer "into the picture", including, in one critic's summary, "left-right balance and the aesthetic application of triangles, circles, crosses, S-curves, and rectangles".
A century later, that critic wrote that the volume "still provides a thoughtful analysis of composition". He died in Orange, New Jersey, on August 15, 1940, after a long illness.
The American Art Association awarded his painting "The Night of the Nativity" its grand prize in 1889. At the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo in 1901 he won a bronze medal, at the International Exposition at St. Louis in 1904 a silver medal, and at the International Exposition in Buenos Aires a gold medal.
