Summary John Ruskin was the most influential art critic during the Victorian period. His five-volume book Modern Paintersℓwas written againstℓart critics who were opposed to the paintings of J.M.W. Turner. Ruskin was a collector of Turner's works and the twoℓwere friends. In his writings, Ruskin was a harsh critic towards classical art and believed that the landscape paintings of Turner and othersℓdemonstrated a superiorℓunderstanding of "truth."ℓ
