  • Modern Painters

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by John Ruskin ...
    Modern Painters, Volume III extends John Ruskin's sweeping defense of art into a searching study of landscape, style, idealism, finish, and the moral force of artistic vision, with Turner at its center. Ruskin presents the book as the result of years of patient labor, delayed by the breadth of his inquiry and by his determination to answer critics who, he believes, recognized Turner's greatness ...

  • Modern Painters

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by John Ruskin ...
    John Ruskin's Modern Painters opens as a fierce defense of landscape art, truth in criticism, and the rights of living genius against shallow public judgment. What began as an angry response to attacks on a great contemporary artist expands into a larger argument about how art should be seen, judged, and valued, with Ruskin insisting that his aim is not praise or attack but the correction of taste ...

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by John Ruskin ...

  • Fors Clavigera

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by John Ruskin ...
    In these impassioned letters and meditations, Ruskin moves from biting social satire to searching moral instruction, using cold mornings, newspaper clippings, household accounts, and biblical genealogy alike to expose the spiritual failures of modern life.

  • Fors Clavigera

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by John Ruskin ...
    In this searching, ironic work, Ruskin addresses workers, rulers, and readers alike with a New Year's challenge: stop confusing rights with deserts, and measure society by moral character rather than political slogans. He argues that people receive what they deserve, that real progress begins in self-discipline and honest labor, and that history is governed by hidden laws of justice no government ... Read more

  • Giotto and His Works in Padua

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by John Ruskin ...
    John Ruskin's passionate introduction to Giotto in Padua presents the painter as a turning point in the history of art: not merely a biographical curiosity, but a master whose frescoes must be read to be understood. Set in the Arena Chapel, built by Enrico Scrovegno on the site of the Roman amphitheatre and painted by Giotto around 1306, the work is framed as both a religious monument and a ... Read more

  • Mornings in Florence

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by John Ruskin ...
    Ruskin leads the reader into Florence's Santa Croce with the urgency of a guide who knows that true seeing must be learned.

  • Aratra Pentelici

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by John Ruskin ...
    John Ruskin's Aratra Pentelici is a passionate defense of sculpture as a disciplined, intellectually serious art, not a vague talent or decorative pastime. Framed as seven Oxford lectures, it introduces the elements of sculpture while arguing that art has a grammar, method, and moral force as exacting as language or reasoning. Ruskin sets out to teach students how sculpture should be studied, ... Read more
