EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, John Ruskin, the renowned English art critic and writer, is depicted soaring above the gritty reality of urban life, immersed in an ideal world of esthetic exclusiveness. The image, titled "Waddy," captures Ruskin in a moment of profound contemplation, as if lost in thought amidst the beauty of art and nature. The year is 1860, and Ruskin, dressed in a high collar shirt and waistcoat, gazes up at the sky, his eyes fixed on a star. His wings, a symbol of his ability to transcend the mundane, are spread wide behind him, lifting him up and away from the hustle and bustle of the cityscape below. The backdrop to this scene is a breathtaking panorama of a historic city, with its towering spires, winding streets, and vibrant roses in full bloom. The juxtaposition of Ruskin's ethereal presence against the earthly beauty of the cityscape underscores the power of art and imagination to transport us to another realm. Ruskin's influence on the art world was profound, and his writings on aesthetics, social issues, and history continue to inspire and challenge us today. This photograph is a poignant reminder of his enduring legacy and the transformative power of art to lift us above the ordinary and into the realm of the extraordinary. John Ruskin, born in 1819 and passing in 1900, was a leading figure in the Victorian art world. His works, including "Modern Painters," "The Stones of Venice," and "Sesame and Lilies," are considered seminal texts in the history of art criticism and cultural theory. This photograph, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the life and mind of this visionary thinker and artist.
