Modern painters

Ruskin, John, 1819-1900 · 1907 · London : G. Routledge & Sons ltd. ; New York : E.P. Dutton & Co.,[1907?] · 2 pictures

Modern Painters is a 1907 art criticism volume by John Ruskin, published in London by Routledge and in New York by E.P. Dutton for a general readership interested in aesthetics and painting. The two pictures are a decorated initial R with a crowned bearded head above a small building, and a bookplate reading Non Frustra with a columned interior view, both in dense black line work that shows how ornamental letters and framed vignettes can structure a page.
