"Walks in Florence" was written by John Ruskin in 1877. The guide to Florence, with its, as I. Brodsky would later write, "architecture of paradise," consists not of six chapters but of "six mornings." "Wait for a clear morning," Ruskin... writes, "get up with the sun and go to Santa Croce with a good binocular in your pocket to help you see more than one masterpiece." Today's reader will have no trouble finding any great work of Renaissance art in minute detail on the internet, but to penetrate its essence, a guide is needed. The erudite, charming storyteller and poet Ruskin will lead the reader through the iconic landmarks of Florence, suggest the best angle for viewing, provide necessary quotes from Dante, historical facts, and most importantly, awaken the desire to passionately explore the art of the Renaissance period.
