More about

The Ruskin Library at Lancaster University was designed by Sir Richard MacCormac. It houses an outstanding collection of the papers and drawings of John Ruskin (1819–1900). There are also works by his friends and associates, which reflect Ruskin's predominant interests in landscape and architecture. There are also many nature studies, copies of Old Master paintings and intimate portraits.
