Modern Painters was written in 1843 by John Ruskin, a english art critic. The Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood was inspired by his words to "go to Nature in all singleness of heart, rejecting nothing, selecting nothing, and scorning nothing." With these words, the artist developed techiniques and skill to find "truth to nature".
