reviewed The Stones of Venice: Volume I. The Foundations on March 28, 2008 The Stones of Venice: Volume I. The Foundations
I learned a great deal through Ruskin's method in visually taking apart a building or structure, separating beauty and power, loads and supports. The way he embraced Lombard architectural methods and traditions as well as Islamic ones in appreciating the Stones of Venice was liberating in a curious way when coming from such a Catholic Victorian art prude.
