Ruskin’s Impact on Spanish Architecture in the 1980s

Abstract

This article analyses how Ruskin’s texts were interpreted in Spanish architectural restoration, especially during the 1980s. Ruskin’s influence impacted early twentieth‑century Spanish culture, but it was forgotten during Franco’s regime. Ruskin’s ideas resurfaced in the democratic 1980s. Spanish theorists like Antón Capitel and Ignasi de Solà‑Morales, among others, reinterpreted Ruskin’s principles to shape their theories, recognizing his influence in notable Spanish architectural achievements of the time.
