“The rules are clearly and fully laid down; and the earlier exercises always conducive to the end by simple and unembarrassing means. The whole volume is full of liveliness.”--_Spectator._ “We close this book with a feeling that, though nothing supersedes a master, yet that no student of art should launch forth without this work as a compass.”--_Athenæum._ “It will be found not only an invaluable acquisition to the student, but agreeable and instructive reading for any one who wishes to refine his perceptions of natural scenery, and of its worthiest artistic representations.”--_Economist._ “Original as this treatise is, it cannot fail to be at once instructive and suggestive.”--_Literary Gazette._ “The most useful and practical book on the subject which has ever come under our notice.”--_Press._ _Modern Painters, Vol. IV. On Mountain Beauty._ _Imperial 8vo, with Thirty-five Illustrations engraved on Steel, and 116 Woodcuts, drawn by the Author. Price 2l. 10s. cloth._ “Considered as an illustrated volume, this is the most remarkable which Mr. Ruskin has yet issued. The plates and woodcuts are profuse, and include numerous drawings of mountain form by the author, which prove Mr. Ruskin to be essentially an artist. He is an unique man, both among artists and writers.”--_Spectator._ “The present volume of Mr. Ruskin’s elaborate work treats chiefly of mountain scenery, and discusses at length the principles involved in the pleasure we derive from mountains and their pictorial representation. The singular beauty of his style, the hearty sympathy with all forms of natural loveliness, the profusion of his illustrations form irresistible attractions.”--_Daily News._ _Modern Painters, Vol. III. Of Many Things._ _With Eighteen Illustrations drawn by the Author, and engraved on Steel._ _Price 38s. cloth._ “Every one who cares about nature, or poetry, or the story of human development--every one who has a tinge of literature or philosophy, will find something that is for him in this volume.”--_Westminster Review._ “Mr. Ruskin is in possession of a clear and penetrating mind; he is undeniably practical in his fundamental ideas; full of the deepest reverence for all that appears to him beautiful and holy. His style is, as usual, clear, bold, racy. Mr. Ruskin is one of the first writers of the day.”--_Economist._ “The present volume, viewed as a literary achievement, is the highest and most striking evidence of the author’s abilities that has yet been published.”--_Leader._ “All, it is to be hoped, will read the book for themselves. They will find it well worth a careful perusal.”--_Saturday Review._ WORKS OF MR. RUSKIN--_continued_. _Modern Painters. Vols. I. and II._ _Imp. 8vo. Vol. I., 5th Edit, 18s. cloth.
