The Elements of Drawing was written during the winter of 1856. The First Edition was published in 1857 , the Second followed in the same year, with some additions and slight alterations. The Third Edition consisted of sixth thousand, 1859 , seventh thousand, 1860, and eighth thousand, 1861. The work was partly reproduced in ‘Our Sketching Club,’ by the Rev. R. St. John Tyrwhitt, M-A., 1874, with new editions in 1875, 1882, and 1886. Mr. Ruskin meant, during his tenure of the Slade Professorship at Oxford, to recast his teaching, and to write a systematic manual for the use of his Drawing School, under the title of ‘The Laws of Fesole.’ Of this only vol. L was completed, 1879, second edition, 1882. As, therefore, ‘The Elements of Drawing’ has never been completely superseded, and as many readers of Mr, Ruskins works have expressed a desire to possess the book in its old form, it is now reprinted as it stood in 1859, with the addition of an Index.
