Book excerpt: Venice was just recovering from the 1849 resistance against the Austrians when John Ruskin took his young wife Effie there. Each week Effie wrote to her mother in Perth, telling her of all their doings, and giving a lively pitcure of Venice, and of how people travelled the Continent at the time. The Ruskins returned to London for only eighteen months before setting out for Venice again for the winter of 1851 - 2, and the two series of Effie's letters written on their journeys and while they were there form a complete story. John Ruskin emerges not as the majestic figure of Victorian art and socialolgy, but as a young husband suffering the pangs and joys of marriage - a marriage already crumbling.

Book excerpt: Superbly edited by Mary Lutyens from the original letters discovered by her untouched in the archives, Effie Ruskin's letters home from Venice give an unparalleled view of Victorian travel and society through the eyes of a highly intelligent and lively young woman. John Ruskin took his wife to Venice for the first time in 1849, and while he worked on books that would define the Victorian aesthetic ideal, Effie explored Venice with growing freedom and independence of thought. Rightly considered a classic both of travel literature and of writing about Victorian art and the milieu where much of it was made and appreciated, 'Effie in Venice' makes a welcome return to print.

Download or read book Effie written by Suzanne Fagence Cooper and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2011-06-21 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effie Gray, a beautiful and intelligent young socialite, rattled the foundations of England's Victorian age. Married at nineteen to John Ruskin, the leading art critic of the time, she found herself trapped in a loveless, unconsummated union after Ruskin rejected her on their wedding night. On a trip to Scotland she met John Everett Millais, Ruskin's protégé, and fell passionately in love with him. In a daring act, Effie left Ruskin, had their marriage annulled and entered into a long, happy marriage with Millais. Suzanne Fagence Cooper has gained exclusive access to Effie's previously unseen letters and diaries to tell the complete story of this scandalous love triangle. In Cooper's hands, this passionate love story also becomes an important new look at the work of both Ruskin and Millais with Effie emerging as a key figure in their artistic development. Effie is a heartbreakingly beautiful book about three lives passionately entwined with some of the greatest paintings of the pre-Raphaelite period.

Book excerpt: "John Ruskin made eleven trips to Venice--the first with his family in 1835 when he was sixteen, the last in 1888, one year before he became irreversibly mad. The city had an importance for his art criticism, for his political thought, and even for his sad emotional life, which can scarcely be exaggerated. This book, which contains a mass of new documentation, deals with the eleven journeys, and their consequences, in turn"--Jacket.
