Ruskin’s works were handled by a special publisher, Mr. George Alleu of London, who had them printed far from unaesthetic factories in the middle of fields filled with flowers and fruit. It is even said that these precious books were shipped to London without using the railway, so that unaesthetic steam engines would play no part in their distribution. On Ruskin, cf Ruskin et la Religion de la Beauté (Hachette) and The Life and Work of John Ruskin, by W. G. Collingwood.

On the fashion in which Rossetti recruited Woolner, it is interesting to read this comment from Harry Quilter: “It is possible that Woolner was never a Pre-Raphaelite by choice, because we found out that it was Rossetti who had claimed him as his own, because of the principles according to which he had written (according to Rossetti) My Beautiful Lady. It seems that this poem was not written according to any principles, and that Rossetti, as he was looking for converts, had decided while admiring the poem that his appreciation could only have come from the fact that these verses were Pre-Raphaelite.
