For the painting of John Ruskin by Millais, see John Ruskin (painting) Coloured engraving of Ruskin John Ruskin (8 February 1819 – 20 January 1900) was an English art critic and social thinker , also remembered as a poet and artist. His essays on art and architecture were extremely influential in the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Ruskin first came to widespread attention for his support for the work of J. M. W.

8. John Ruskin Brief biography of John Ruskin, from the Victorian Station. http://www.victorianstation.com/authorruskin.htm

John Ruskin John Ruskin, the greatest Victorian bar Victoria, was an artist, scientist, poet, environmentalist, philosopher, and, importantly here, the pre-eminent art critic of his time. He provided the impetus that gained respectability for the Pre-Raphaelites. Ruskin's letter to The Times in 1851, supporting the much-derided Pre-Raphaelites for their naturalism and truth to nature, marked a turning point in their perception by the public. In a second letter, he wrote that the Pre-Raphaelites might "lay the foundation of a school of art nobler than the world has seen for 300 years." When, after this, Ruskin met the Pre-Raphaelites, he encouraged them in their ideals, acting as tutor, mentor, and generous supporter to Rossetti, Millais and Holman Hunt, as well as later artists in a similar spirit such as John Brett and John William Inchbold. He was a long-time friend of the children's illustrator Kate Greenaway, and also of the bird-painter H. S. Marks. Ruskin taught Pre-Raphaelite style drawing at the Working Men's College in London for some years, enlisting Rossetti to teach figure and watercolor painting, and afterwards Ford Madox Brown to fill the same position. Afterwards, he left London, becoming Slade Professor of Art at Oxford (where there is an art college named after him) and then removing to the Lake District where he helped to start the Environmental Movement.

John Ruskin: The Stones of Venice - "Venetian Index" This is an electronic edition of the so-called "Venetian Index", a list of buildings in Venice with descriptions created by John Ruskin as an appendix to his work "The Stones of Venice" In 1850, John Ruskin travelled to Venice in the company of his wife Effie and his assistant John Hobbes. As part of the preparatory work he had Hobbes learn the daguerreotype process of photography which had been then recently invented However, Venice is the initial point, but not the target of his monumental work of architectural theory published in 1853 in three volumes as "Stones of Venice". The "Stones" are not a history of architecture, but the abundance of details given by Ruskin is still relevant for modern scholarship. Much of the work is dedicated social criticism of the industrialisation in England during the Victorian Age, and Venetian architecure of the Middle Ages, especially the Ducal Palace , is not only regarded as an ideal architecture, but as an effigy of an ideal society. For Ruskin, the Doge's palace was a model of all perfection . It cannot surprise that the late renaissance and baroque architecture ( grotesque renaissance ) does, according to Ruskin's moralism, symbolize the decay of the "Serenissima" herself.
