The Worlds of John Ruskin by Kevin Jackson
An introduction to the life, work and art of one of the most influential and exhilarating writers in English. Art critic, architectural visionary, social reformer, climate warner and incomparable teacher: Ruskin's words not only transformed Victorian England but speak to us with increasing urgency today. With 165 illustrations printed in full colour - including 111 images by Ruskin, ranging from private notes to presentation drawings to lecture diagrams - mostly from the collection at the Ruskin Library, and many never before published. Published in association with the Ruskin Foundation
