⚒️ “There are no natural objects out of which more can be learned than out of stones,” wrote #Ruskin in 'Of Mountain Beauty', 1856. A billion years recorded by their very absence. This Great Unconformity would surely have filled the geologist in him with awe. #Geology

A BILLION YEARS OF MISSING TIME The Great Unconformity at East Bluff, Devil's Lake, Wisconsin: 1.63 Ga Baraboo Quartzite overlain by a boulder breccia at the base of the sandstones of the Cambrian Sauk Sea (600-505 Ma). ⚒️

A female geologist has her hand on a low outcrop of quartzite, and that is overlain by ~2m of boulder breccia and then bedded sandstone.

🎭 Only one sleep until the Ruskin Society outing to see *Train to Cleveland with John Ruskin* at the CamdenFringe Festival. We are very much looking forward to an evening of theatre, conversation, sustenance and good cheer.🍹 And of course, #Ruskin!

🎭 World premiere at Camden Fringe Festival 2026. A burnt‑out PhD student boards a train and finds John Ruskin sitting opposite. Art, doubt, ambition, failure & the cost of tethering our worth to accomplishment. 🎭 *Train to Cleveland with John Ruskin* Circle and Star Theatre, Hampstead 5–7 August

Cream-coloured theatre poster for Train to Cleveland with John Ruskin. At the top, the title appears in large dark serif lettering. Below, an ornate bronze frame surrounds a hand-drawn scene of two bearded men seated opposite each other in blue train seats: Michael Nolan, wearing purple, and Victorian art critic John Ruskin, wearing a patterned red and grey jacket. Small text identifies the image as “Michael Nolan and John Ruskin in Conversation, 1997.” The poster announces “A New Play with Music” by Dan Callaway and Joey Nicoletti, presented at Camden Fringe Festival, Circle and Star Theatre in Hampstead, 5–7 August 2026.

never enter competitions but John #Ruskin Prize 2019 I made final shortlist They said: your work has not been shortlisted but it did reach the penultimate stages of judging reaching the long list of just 150 artists. Given the strength of this years applicants you should be encouraged by this news."

💚🤍 Grass of Parnassus. Native to these islands. Surely a flower #Ruskin would have delighted in, with its delicacy, intricacy and quiet beauty revealed only by looking closely. Cumbria’s own little bog-star. 💮

Just coming into flower, Grass Of Parnassas, the county flower of Cumbria. Not a grass, but a flowering wetland herb. Increasingly rare in the south of England due to habitat loss, but plenty of boggy areas in Cumbria for it.

#Ruskin kept returning to the #Alps not to conquer summits but to understand them. He drew glaciers like the Mer de Glace with extraordinary geological precision, recording their form & movement. His works are now invaluable records of Alpine glacier loss. #AlpineClubVisit #ClimateChange
John Ruskin, The Mer de Glace from the Montanvers Hotel above Chamonix (1849). Viewed from above, the broad glacier fills the valley with a maze of jagged ice ridges and deep crevasses. Steep rocky slopes rise on either side, leading the eye towards distant snow-covered peaks beneath a pale, hazy sky. Executed in graphite, pen and ink, and delicate brown and blue-grey washes, the drawing combines artistic beauty with remarkable geological precision.
