Beauty, life, memory, obedience, power, sacrifice, and truth – these are the seven lamps of architecture. In this illustrated edition, Ruskin explains that the value of architecture hinges on both “the image it bears of the natural creation” and “the impression it receives from human power.”

First published in 1880, The Seven Lamps of Architecture remains a primary reference on design at the turn of the nineteenth century while also establishing in print key elements of architecture that continue to be relevant today.
