RUSKIN
(John, 1819-1900, Art Critic & Writer)
Fine Autograph Letters Signed to Henry Jowett,
head printer at Hazell Watson & Viney’s Aylesbury works, where Ruskin’s later books were set up, sending him “in this, and another packet, I send you choppings up and new copy which will fit altogether into a long chapter in ‘Viola’ (Not Viola Camina - please correct throughout) and a short one on Pinguicula. This Chap II is to be followed by ‘Veronica’ which is just ready and I believe we may easily get two numbers of Proserpina out together - only you always seem to take such a time after I pass the last verse. I think the nine pages more copy will leave little of this number to spare but I will fill in the last bit of Chapter 1 as you tell me what is wanted...”, 2 sides 8vo., Brantwood, Coniston headed paper, 1st November
