Description
John Ruskin, born in February 1819, was the greatest critic of his age: a critic not only of art and architecture but of society and life. His writings on beauty and truth, on work and leisure, on commerce and capitalism, and on life and how to live it are still influential today. Whether examining the carvings of a medieval cathedral or the mass-produced wares of Victorian industry, Ruskin saw vividly the glories and the contradictions of life and taught us how to see them as well.
