Modern Painters, Volume 2 (of 5) by John Ruskin
"Modern Painters, Volume 2 (of 5)" by John Ruskin is a work of art criticism published in 1846. This second volume shifts focus to symbolism in art as expressed through nature, building on Ruskin's defense of J.M.W. Turner and modern landscape painters. The volume proved influential on the emerging Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, offering a new framework for understanding how artists capture not merely what they see, but deeper truths about the natural world
and its symbolic meaning. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
