Description

John Ruskin, Victorian England’s biggest author on art and literature, believed himself an adopted son of Venice, and his emotions for this town are exquisitely expressed in The Stones of Venice. This edition comprises Ruskin’s well-known essay “The Nature of Gothic,” a marvelously descriptive tour of Venice before its postwar restoration. As Ruskin wrote in 1851, “Thank God I’m right here, this can be a Paradise of Towns.”
