Descrição: Although Ruskin’s life was long (1819–1900), and even his publishing career extended for more than half a century, his architectural output belongs almost entirely to two relatively circumscribed periods: the period 1848–53, in which he became preoccupied with architecture as an aside from Modern Painters and produced his most famous architectural works, The Seven Lamps of Architecture and The Stones of Venice; and the period of the 1870s and early 1880s, in which his interest in architecture was reawakened by a plan for a new edition of The Stones of Venice, but which instead led to new work, including St Mark’s Rest and The Bible of Amiens. Although the products of Ruskin’s second architectural period are by no means without interest or importance, our concern here is with the first: the period that opened with his notebook scheme for The Seven Lamps of Architecture in the spring of 1848 and closed with the publication of the third and final volume of The Stones of Venice in October 1853. This has often been described as a period of transition in Ruskin’s life, with Ruskin the critic of art turning into Ruskin the critic of society.
