Ardent defender of Turner and the principle of art as a universal language, champion of gothic art, arts and crafts, and the Pre-Raphaelite movement, precursor of the art for art’s sake movement, setting an aesthetic utopia against the economic and social reality, John Ruskin (1819-1900) was also actively involved in the political debate of his country through his support of socialist ideals that aimed at the unity of art and life.
Texts by John Ruskin published for the first time in French.
