EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from 1874, a group of dedicated students from the University of Oxford are seen working diligently on a rural road at Hinksey, under the guidance of their esteemed professor, John Ruskin. The scene captures the essence of Ruskin's influential philosophy that "there is no wealth but life," and that work, even the most manual labor, is a noble and artistic pursuit. Ruskin, a renowned art critic, social commentator, and philosopher, was a passionate advocate for the value of hard work and the connection between labor and art. He believed that the act of creating or repairing something with one's own hands was a form of artistic expression and a means of improving both the individual and the community. The students in this photograph, inspired by Ruskin's teachings, are seen blistering their hands as they work on the road, demonstrating their commitment to the ethic of hard work and the transformative power of artistry in everyday life. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of manual labor and the enduring influence of Ruskin's ideas on the intellectual and artistic landscape of the late 19th century.
