Description

The names John Ruskin and J.M.W. Turner will forever be linked in the annals of art history. Galvanized by attacks on the Romantic landscape painter's works in the Royal Academy, Ruskin was inspired to write the first volume of "Modern Painters," a lengthy defense of Turner and the artist's duty to "truth to nature" that established him as a rising star in the art world. In this gorgeously hand painted 1896 volume, Elbert Hubbard, the founder of the Arts and Crafts-inspired Roycroft artisan community, vividly recalls his pilgrimages to the England homes of the two influential 19th-century artistic figures.
