This book, written by John Ruskin, offers a profound reflection on the relationship between Giotto's art and previous and subsequent artistic creations. It includes detailed commentaries on the works that the Florentine artist painted in the Arena Chapel in Padua around the year 1305. This edition, the first in Spanish, presents an introduction that highlights the audacity of Giotto's compositions and their impact on the perception of art over time. With a prologue by Andreu Jaume, the book invites reflection on the evolution of art and the relevance of Giotto in the contemporary context.
John Ruskin was an English polymath – a writer, lecturer, art historian, art critic, draughtsman and philanthropist of the Victorian era. He wrote on subjects as varied as art, architecture, political economy, education, museology, geology, botany, ornithology, literature, history, and myth.
