About This Book

A collection of essays examines personal objects, rooms, and projects linked to John Ruskin, using relics and anecdotes to sketch his habits, tastes, and methods. Chapters focus on his study and favourite chair, the small boat called the Jump, gardens and the old road, account books, an effigy known as Ilaria, maps and drawings, handwriting, music, jewels, library, Bibles, and the Isola. Close descriptions of artifacts, archival notes, and reproduced illustrations combine biography, material culture, and critical commentary to illuminate his working life and aesthetic concerns.
