Ruskin on Venice: "The Paradise of Cities" - Studies in British Art
Robert Hewison
Traces John Ruskin's long and intricate relationship with Venice. This book shows how Ruskin shed his Romantic vision, formed by Byron and Turner, and developed a harder, clearer conception of neglected Gothic Venice through an intense study of the city's physical fabric that changed international understanding of the city.
