    Description

    The first edition. 

    In the publisher's original cloth. 

    Two lectures by John Ruskin, originally delivered at Manchester on the 10th and 13th of July, 1857.

    In these lectures Ruskin ponders the subject of political economy in art, a fascinating treatise on the subject Ruskin was an expert in.

    Written by the noted Victorian English art critic, John Ruskin.

    Condition

    In the publisher's original cloth. Externally generally smart with fading to the spine and boards, an ink signature to the front board, bumping to the extremities and very small closed tears to the head and tail of the spine. Front hinge starting. Internally firmly bound with lightly age toned pages with the odd spot and handling mark.
