George Eliot to Mrs. Charles Bray, 19 May 1854. “Tell Sara I did notice Hunt's picture, he being an immense admiration of mine, and that I did read Ruskin's letter. I understand all the beauties Ruskin points out, and it is impossible to look at the picture without feeling the power there is in it -- but it is too mediaeval and pietistic to be rejoiced in as a product of the present age. At least that was my feeling on Monday; perhaps when I go again I may be more in harmony with it.” GEL 2: 156
