Aratra Pentelici is a book written by John Ruskin, a prominent art critic and social thinker of the 19th century. The book is a collection of six lectures that Ruskin delivered at Oxford University in 1872. The lectures focus on the elements of sculpture, including form, color, texture, and composition. Ruskin explores the historical and philosophical aspects of sculpture, examining its role in society and its relationship to other forms of art. He also analyzes the works of notable sculptors, such as Michelangelo and Donatello, and discusses their techniques and styles. Throughout the book, Ruskin emphasizes the importance of art in shaping human culture and morality. Aratra Pentelici is a seminal work in the field of art criticism and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and theory of sculpture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
