sentences:  Although Ruskin wrote about architecture in many works over the course of his career, his much-anthologised essay "The Nature of Gothic" from the second volume of "The Stones of Venice" (1853) is widely considered to be one of his most important and evocative discussions of his central argument.Ruskin's theories indirectly encouraged a revival of Gothic styles, but Ruskin himself was often dissatisfied with the results.He objected that forms of mass-produced "faux" Gothic did not exemplify his principles, but showed disregard for the true meaning of the style.
