John Ruskin (1819-1900) was the most important critic of the last century and one of the period's greatest writers of English prose. He exercised an enormous influence not only on the theory but also on the practice of the arts, and by his powerful advocacy of Turner, the Pre-Raphaelites and the Gothic style decisively affected the course of British art and architecture. He was an exceedingly prolific writer, and the standard edition of his works runs to 38 volumes - a daunting prospect to the scholar and general reader alike. This book is designed to make available, in an easily accessible form, a generous selection of Ruskin's finest writings on painting, sculpture and architecture. It is arranged chronologically to show the development of his critical method, which in his time constituted a new and almost revolutionary approach to art. The reader will thus find in one volume the essence of Ruskin's teaching and his best appreciations of works of art. The illustrations are of works discussed by Ruskin in the text, and include some of his own drawings.
