Several lithographs by Prout (from his Sketches in Flanders and Germany)also remain unframed. There is a bundle of cartoons from Punch, from which Ruskin sometimesdrew to illustrate his lectures (see Art of England, % 147, 151); also variousmiscellaneous woodcuts, etc. (such as those referred to in Art of England,§ 184). There are also several photographs—among them, one of Iffley Church(which was shown in the lectures on The Pleasures of England, § 85); andseveral of Bume-Joness Days of Creation (for a reference to these, seeArt of England, § 56).. r )? ? ? h < APPENDIX I.
