[It will have been seen above (pp. 530–531) that Ruskin attached great educational importance to the circulation of good copies of Turner's Drawings. The trouble he took in training copyists appears in the Letters to William Ward (2 vols., 1893), reprinted in a later volume of this edition. A collection of Mr. Ward's copies was on view at the Fine Art Society's Gallery at the same time as Ruskin's Collection of Turners in 1878. On p. 4 of the wrapper of Ruskin's Notes the following announcement was printed:—
Mr. Ruskin having also placed at the disposal of the Fine Art Society a Series of facsimiles of a portion of the Turner Drawings in the National Gallery executed for him by Mr. Ward, the Collection is now on view at the Galleries of the Society, 148, New Bond Street.
