industrialization in Brazil, especially in terms of the teaching of
drawing, which supported different activities at the beginning
of Brazilian industrialization. This is an extremely original part
of Amaral's study: the search for the relationship between
Ruskin's aesthetic and the industrial policies of the Old
Republic in Brazil.
One of the clearest examples of Ruskin's influence is
the relationship between the most important schools of arts and
crafts in Brazil, in Rio de Janeiro, at this time the federal
capital, and the reform of primary teaching, implemented by
Rui Barbosa, which contains a conception of education based
on Ruskin proposals.
Rui Barbosa even quoted Ruskin's name in his
statements and made a well-known speech, in which he calls
Ruskin "the greatest master in the area of arts that 19th century
produced" when defending the teaching of drawing to children
before they started to learn how to write. In the Rio de Janeiro
Liceu de Aries e Oficios, differently to other Brazilian art
schools, where the students just learned how to copy patterns,
and studied descriptive Geometry when learning how to draw,
the students in the Liceu were given total liberty to mix
different drawing styles.
Claudio Amaral emphasizes another point, based on
Ruskin's famous comment: labour should be carried out with
pleasure. Contrasting with the prejudice established by the
difference between Liberal Arts and Mechanical Arts, where
the liberal should think, and the mechanic only carry out
instructions, Ruskin's idea of labour performed with pleasure
joins the ideas of Bethencourt da Silva (the founder of Rio de
Janeiro's Liceu de Aries e Oficios), with those of Rui Barbosa
iv
(intellectual, Brazilian minister and Lieen member), and both of
them with those of Ruskin, using a very similar idea: "a form of
labour in which those who think. also do.-
This uniting of Liberal and Mechanical Arts by
Bethencourt and Barbosa changed the original project of
Lebreton (the head of the French mission in Rio de Janeiro,
who established the Academy of Fine Arts and believed that the
Liceu de Artes e Oficios would qualify the working-class to
mechanically construct what had been planned in the
Academy). This mixture of ideas resulted in the education of
the Rio de Janeiro's Liceu de Artes e Oficios having a social
content beyond the limits of mere drawing technique, in which
only learning notions of geometry was important.
In the Rio de Janeiro Liceu, the students were free to
mix styles and create new forms based on their own
imagination, which was very unusual and innovative in
Brazilian education in this period. Rui Barbosa and
Bethencourt used Ruskin's ideas to oppose the prejudice
against manual labour, believing that the teaching of drawing
could build a modem society based on labour.
If we agree with the historian's analyses of Modem
Architecture or examine Ruskin's texts on architecture in
narrow terms, we will have no idea of John Ruskin's influence
on the industrial process in Brazil, because, according to certain
historians, Ruskin is just a romantic medievalist, a defender of
the return to the production of Middle Ages, and therefore, very
distant from our reality and of no interest to our difficult daily
lives.

This is why I see this study as an important contribution
to the historiography of learning in Brazil and the politics of
industrialization at the end of the 19th century.

INTRODUCTION
Teaching Reform and was one of the most important intellectuals during the
process which, in 1889, changed Brazil from a monarchy to a republic. He
was the Prime Minister in the Republican period and the most important
contributor to the first Brazilian Republican Constitution; afterwards he ran
for President in the first civil elections in Brazil. After losing the election he
travelled to England. He was presidential candidate three more times, but
lost all three elections. In 1907 he took part in The Hague Conference and
achieved worldwide fame, and because of his great success at this event he
is commonly referred as the Eagle of The Hague. He was also very
important in Brazilian history as a senator and diplomat who drew the
borders of Brazil as we know today.
3 "In 1849, in Seven Lamps, Ruskin argued for the rejection of styles and the
pursuit of styles: We want no new style in architecture. ( ...) But we want
some styles. Once a single style bad become universally accepted, its
adaptation would eventually produce a new style suitable for a new world.
Unfortunately, however, Ruskin recommended not one style but a choice of
four: Pisan Romanesque, as in the Baptistry and Cathedral at Pis&, the Early
Gothic of the eastern Italian republics, as at 8m. Croce, Florence; Venetian
Gothic - 8m. Maria dell'Orto, for example. and early English decorated, as
in the north transept at Lincoln Cathedral." (Crook, in Hunt. The Ruskin
Polygon, p. 69)
2
Helsinger,4 Herseys and Hunt6 say that Ruskin had a
visual thought, a spatial way o/thinking. This visual logic is the
opposite of formal logic, which has a linear sequence (leaving
point A and arriving at point B), and a linear chronology.
Spatial logic places the subjects side by side, dealing
simultaneously with present, past and future, changing the
subject, deviating when necessary, having fun with colours,
getting near and far; combining subjects in unusual
combinations, using metaphors to reinforce the established
links.
Ruskin's perception is an act of reflection made by the
observer or reader, and it is never given by the painter or
author, who will merely create the conditions for the reader to
begin his own act of reflection.
Heisinger attributed this theory not to Ruskin, but to
Wordsworth, whose poems are full of colours, sounds and
memories. Wordsworth called this procedure sublime and
aimed at a unity between things that, initially, are not united.
HeIsinger considers this concept of the sublime very
different from Burke's idea of the sublime, which is related to
pleasure, which comes from pain, and which is, according to
Heisinger, negative. Wordsworth's concept of the sublime, like
Ruskin's, is derived from the idea of picturesque. The parts
come together to build a whole, and this whole is made up of
objects, effects, sensations, memories, and colour. Hunt
believes that Ruskin's production must be read as if it were a
whole, like Wordsworth's sublime.
3
When seeing or reading Ruskin's work. on this theory of
the sublime, it is possible to understand his method, which
states that the themes are less important than the method itself.
The themes dealt with by Ruskin are usually thought to have
been little researched, which has resulted in considerable
criticism of his work, but, since the themes are merely the
background to a way of seeing, they are no more than
supporting ideas, thus weakening the criticism. 7 Ruskinian
truths become Ruskin's personal impressions, and this does not
reduce the quality of the method.
Ruskin often mentioned subjects he did not fully
master, because he claimed to have the right to express his
opinion even if he was not a specialist. In addition, his main
subject is not the themes themselves but rather the method
whose logic would be present in all of them.
Ruskin's spatial thought made several different
interpretations possible for his reader: there are those who
regarded his work. as being made up of isolated subjects, and
those who regarded his work. as a unified whole. In this study
Ruskin's work. will be handled as a unity, and its main subject
is structure of composition that can be seen as a form of logic.
According to Ruskin, it seems that learning how to draw
is learning how to see, and learning how to see is feeling a logic
of composition in nature. "Now remember gentlemen that I
have not been trying to teach you to draw, only to see. ,,8
7 Bradley writes about the rage of specialists against Ruskin talking about
what he had not researched. (Bradley, J. Ruskin, the critical heritage, p. 14)
8 Haslam, R.., Looking, drawing and learning with John Ruskin at the
Working Men's College, v. 7, n. 1, p. 75.
4
Ruskin behaves as ifhe were the prophet who heralds in
the truth to his pupils, and in doing so he fails to make use of
rules to teach how to draw. He would say that every student
should build his own path based on real experiences, on his
own particular seeing. The only thing required from this seeing
is that it must be made up of the association of simultaneous
subjects, memories and periods.
Ruskin taught through his written production, and his
teaching of drawing was his theory of perception, which
intended to reform the industrial society of the period. Ruskin
taught in Working Men's Colleges in London and in the Ruskin
School of Drawing and Fine Art in Oxford. Today, the Ruskin
College in Oxford awards professional qualifications to people
who have had limited access to schooling.
The Ruskinian drawing technique combines perception,
education, culture, and social relationships at work, which are
linked by Ruskin's theory of perception.
For Ruskin, teaching how to see had an ethical proposal
coming from the worship of beauty, which is the result of a
relationship between objects, sensations and memories. Beauty
is also the result of social relationships, which in themselves
contain mutual help.
But Ruskin believed that the best form of ethics was
that of the co-operation as seen in the policy of mutual help.
Ruskin attempted to find this in the natural landscape, calling it
beautiful. The various elements are dependent on each other
and need each other to establish a unity in a state of equilibrium
in the natural landscape.
5
Architecture is the best example of Ruskin's ethical
theory. When he visualizes a building, he sees the relations that
mediated the work of its conception and construction as an
aesthetic experience.
Ruskin uses religion to examine architectural creation.
He uses the theory of God as an architect: God, who has built
nature, which is creative and perfect. He recognizes men's
imperfections, and admits that men could be creative, but never
perfect. And as men are imperfect they ought to ask help from
other men. And they can only be creative by associating with
others to work cooperatively through mutual help, respecting
the same ethic that rules nature.
One of the best-known sentences of Ruskin is work
must be done with pleasure, 9 which implies a different
conception of pleasure from the Victorian culture of his time, in
which pleasure was fun after work and is fulfilled through the
act of consumption. Ruskin regards pleasure as belonging to the
world of work, and it must be done with pleasure,
understanding that creative work gives pleasure. Besides
pleasure, work must produce useful products for life, which
means that he is against the production of luxury goods and
objects of destruction.
The Ruskinian theory of perception seeks a certain sort
of beauty. However, this was the result ofa logic expressing an
ethic found in architecture as relations at work. And it was from
7
place in Europe, and they were sensitive to Ruskin's critiques
of the Great Exhibition of 1851, held in London. 10
Ruskin attacked not only the bad design of the products
but also how they were produced, criticizing the division of
industrial work, and proposed a new organization of work
based on cooperative tasks, which was the basis of the British
Arts and Crqfis, different to the Brazilian Liceu de Artes e
Oficios do Rio de Janeiro, but with certain aspects in common.
The Liceu de Artes e Oflcios do Rio de Janeiro is not a
result of John Ruskin's thoughts, although its foundation was
influenced by Ruskin. The Liceu was the result of a French
mission, which, when requested by the King of Portugal and
Emperor of Brazil, Dom Jofto VI, came to Rio de Janeiro in
181611 to found two schools, one of Liberal Arts and other of
Mechanical Arts. 12 But in 1826 only the school of liberal arts
Nature
32 "A pure holy state of anything, therefore, is that in which all its parts are
helpful or consistent. They may or may not be homogeneous. The highest of
organic purities are composed of many elements in an entirely helpful state.
The highest and first law of the universe - and the other name of life, is
therefore, help. The other name of death is separation. Government and
coopenttion are in all things and eternally the laws of life. Anarchy and
competition, eternally, and in all things, the laws of death. ... (Ruskin, J.
Modem Painters, v. V, p.I60)

expressed by the interdependence of its parts, as is the case of
pictorial composition.
Following Ruskin's thought, it is possible to say that
nature is a painting. Nature provides the parameters for
pictorial composition, and this, in Ruskin, is called natural
unity. Metaphorically speaking, this is the result of a
connection of the drawing of all the elements of a canvas. This
connection is harmonious when there is a policy of mutual
help. This harmony or equilibrium seems to be the most
important Ruskinian notion, deriving from the natural dynamic,
and which is why Ruskin transfers it to religion, stating that
nature is the work of a creator, a God.
The theme of the divine in Ruskin contains a peculiar
aspect of Ruskin's theory of fo~ and this is another subject
dealt with by Ruskin to demonstrate the existence of a natural
logic.
It is necessary to say that nature is structured because of
the existence of a natural order, whose expression creates its
aesthetic dimension.
This order was created by the superior metaphysical
being, who established a natural dynamic for everything. This
dynamic is the result of a kind of relationship called natural
ethics, generating harmony between its elements based on the
policy ofmutual-help.
The aesthetics of this ethics is the result of a kind of
drawing, which structmes relationships into its forming
elements, leading them to states of equilibrium.
"( ... ) that the whole tree is fed partly by the earth,
partly by the air, strengthened and sustained by the one,
22
agitated and educated by the other, all of it which is best,
in substance, life, and beauty being drawn more from the
dew of heaven then the fatness of the earth. ,.33
Ruskin illustrates a logic in which the elements are
interdependent, and their outlines would have the necessary
form to establish this kind of relation.
The aesthetic value of this logic is in the result attained
through the relationship of the elements (equilibrium =
harmony = reason), which means that no isolated element is or
is not beautiful. Beauty shows itself as a result of true
composition.
Ruskin says that equilibrium can be understood as the
result of a relationship of exchange, a fair exchange: someone
has something that another person does not have but needs, so
they exchange what they have, and everyone benefits.
The logic Ruskin sees in nature, true composition,
seems to have migrated to the pictorial form. All the elements,
animals, non-animate objects, etc., are part of the true
composition. The objects are materials which have an outline,
but also a spiritual essence. From the notion of material in co-
relation to the notion of spirit, Ruskin elaborated the notion of
form, in which drawing and morals, that is, the drawing of a
moral, are central elements.
For Ruskin seeing is feeling a moral, which means
feeling an essence, a truth. When relating truth to aesthetics he
states that not every truth is beautiful, since beauty is the result
of a relationship in which the result is not always harmonious.
Beauty appears only when the truth of an element has a
34 "It will perhaps appear to you, after a little further thought. that to create
anything in reality is to put life into it A poet, or creator, is therefore a
person who puts things together, not as watchmaker steel, or shoemaker
leather, but who puts life into them. His work: is essentially this: it is the
gathering and arranging of material by imagination, so as to have in it at last
the harmony of helpfulness of life, and the passion or emotion of life. Mere
fitting and adjustment of material is nothing that is watchmaking" But
24
Therefore, from the Rusldnian perspective, in order to
be beautifUl, to have symmetry, a composition must above all
be creative, meaning that beauty is always something new and
never repeated. The logic of nature does not set standards;
beauty is always the result of associations that have never taken
place before.
Ruskin regarded nature as being immersed in a process
of creative composition leading towards equilibrium. He
understood nature as a natmal chain, in which every element is
part of the process of composition. On a universal scale the
composition will always be harmonious, therefore, beautifUl.
The Rusldnian natural chain comes from a relationship of
composition in which the truth of one element establishes a
relationship with the truth of another and results in harmony.
Nevertheless, Ruskin states that man will never be able to
understand this logic, but only to feel it, since true composition
is the apprehension of the infinite, and man can only apprehend
the finite.
"True composition being entirely easy to the man
who can compose, he is seldom proud of it, though he
clearly recognizes it. Also true composition is
inexplicable. No one can explain how the notes of Mo2'Mt
melody, or the folds of a piece of Titian's drapery,
produce their essential effect on each other. If you do not
feel it, no one can by reasoning make you feel it.,,35

JOHN RUSKIN AND THE TEACHING
OF DRAWING IN BRAZIL
70 Although the craft corporations bad been forbidden in Brazil there were
some that still existed. Inside these craft corporations there was no
difference between production and teaching. The master took on an
apprentice for a certain amount of money and made him work according to
his orders. The apprentice was at the same time student and servant.
71 "The corporative laws of the Middle Ages methodically prevented ( ... ) an
artisan master from becoming capitalist, establishing strict limits on the
number of people he bad the right to employ. He was also allowed to
employ an apprentice only in the work he was master of. The corporation
carefully protected itself from mercantile capital. The merchant could buy
59
"During the 18th century one of the great names
of the history of educatio~ the Swiss Jean Jacques
Rousseau, wrote Emile, considered the great classic of
Utopian pedagogy, which proposes that education can
reform society. Artz, as well as La Cbalotais and
Condillac, remembers that Rousseau followed Locke's
theory on human knowledge and its origin in sensations -
the basis of reflexive thought - which also affirms that
direct experience and reason should replace authority in
educatio~ insisting on the value of learning while doing.
Besides, he declares his hatred of books, which only
teach us how to speak about things which we do not
know anything. This is why, more than any other writer,
he regards the manual arts in their true educational value:
a young man learns more in one hour of manual work,
than in a whole day of verbalized instruction."72
The industrialization of Brazil, according to Barbosa
and Bethencourt, first needed to go through a cultural change,
forming a society with a tendency for work, and then the

Debret, and a Portuguese teacher, who was in charge of this part of the
teaching. Debret already had considerable experience of the primary
teaching of drawing, as well as the teaching of painting because he not only
directed the atelier of the neoclassical French painter, David, for 15 years,
but he was also the only drawing master at the best and largest school in
Paris, the school ofSt. Barbe. ( ... ) After the first classes on the study of the
figure, the drawing of ornaments started, which was very varied and useful
to all crafts, and which could be used to adorn and beautify, whether by the
choice of forms, or accessories. Thus the school was totally under the
influence of the architectu:re teacher, since the furniture, vases, jewelJry
objects, joinery, etc. are under his responsibility, and he also teaches the
carpenter and the cart maker the necessary precise and exact roles."

technique. 77 Notwithstanding, bourgeois technology has always
expressed a thinking related to doing.
The progress of science, the improvement in men's
lives, requires, according to Bacon, the technical knowledge to
be part of science and natural philosophy. The methods,
procedures, operations, and language of mechanical arts were
established and perfected outside the world of official science,
in the world of engineers, architects, qualified artisans, and
machine and toolmakers. These methods, procedures and
languages now had to become the subject of examination,
reflection and study. 78
The relation between theory and praxis, necessary to the
concept of bourgeois technology, was not present when there
79 "In our days the bond between science and production, as the only way of
joining theory and praxis, is very narrow, since the improvements reached
by the productive forces in this century would be impossible without
scientific progress.» (Gama, R. Teena/agio e Trabalho no His/lJria, p. 80)
66
consequence the word technology. strictus sensus, cannot
be used to describe the artisan's work."so
The French Mission came to Rio de Janeiro to found
schools. which means that the bourgeois concept of technology
was present. Lebreton, proposing the teaching of drawing,
brought the experience of the European industrial revolution of
the time.
The French Liceu reduced the distance between the
liberal and mechanical arts, and proposed the conception of
bourgeois technology. However, it cannot be said that
Bethencourt strictly reproduced Lebreton's ideas, as he was
responding to another period of the industrial revolution,
although the problem was similar. More precisely, Bethencourt
was responding to critics of the Great Exhibition in London,
who emphasized the necessity of increasing the number of
drawing courses. SI
Although Brazil was not an industrialized nation, the
Liceu de Artes e Oficios do Rio de Janeiro intended to
implement the policY of an aesthetic education.82 "To build
industry is to organize education. ,,83
74
education which would value labour. Thus teaching of drawing
was a moral act.
The industrialization project in Brazil in the second half
of the 19th century was guided by the policy of Drawing
Education spread by the Liceu de Artes e Oficios do Rio de
Janeiro and Rui Barbosa's Reform of Primary Education. And
its core was Aesthetics Education as a key element in the
development of a skilled labour market. Education was seen as
the ideal vehicle to alter values. In its promotion of the union of
liberal and mechanical arts, the Brazilian school of arts and
crafts approached Ruskinian values.
"All ideas of this kind are founded upon two
mistaken suppositions: the first that one man's thought
can be or ought to be, executed by another man's hands,
the second, that manual labour is degradation, when it is
governed by intellect. (...) We are always in these days
endeavouring to separate the two, we want one man to be
always thinking, and another to be always working, and
we call one a gentleman, and the other an operative,
whereas the workman ought often to be thinking, and the
thinker often to be working, and both should be
gentlemen, in the best sense.,,95
Differently, but in other ways similar to what was
taking place in Brazil, John Ruskin in Britain struggled against
the teaching of drawing based on mechanical procedures. In
Brazil this meant struggling against the neoclassical
educational ideas, and in Britain this meant struggling against
the South Kensington system, a teaching based on developing
drawing skills for industrial design skills.
77
Barbosa again showed his indebtedness to Ruskin in his
Reform of Primary Education (1883), a work that encapsulated
Barbosa's educational project to prepare the industrialization
process of Brazil. loo Ruskin is quoted in defense of a natural
education:
"Mr. Ruskin, the eloquent artist, to whose
influence in our days is attributed the awakening of
artistic life in the bosom of England, and whose helpful
advocacy has replaced, in the public sentiment, the cult of
the old conventions for the reverent and loving study of
nature, has profoundly influenced the popular modem
culture of his country. On one occasion, Mr. Ruskin
lamented the neglect of nature in education, using words
that seem directed deliberately at the general state of
education among US."lOI
Barbosa, like Bethencourt, regarded the policy of
teaching drawing as a moral issue:
"Drawing is beginning to be seen as an essential
branch of general education at every level, as well as the
basis of all technical and industrial education. There is an
emerging perception that it constitutes a useful thing in
every part of labour and in every condition of life; that it
is the best means to develop the faculty of observation,
and cultivate an appreciation of the beauty in objects of
nature and of art, which is indispensable to the architect,
the painter, the draughtsman, the sculptor, the mechanic;
