According to the author, the prototype for the cabinets was a double-sided library cupboard with four drawers above, and cupboards below with slots to hold picture frames, which had been made for the study of Ruskin's parents' third London home in Denmark Hill, and was later moved to Ruskin's study in Brantwood, where they remain. The entry also notes that the firm of cabinet-makers patronized by Ruskin was William and Edward Snell of 27 Albemarle Street. 194-95 reference publication-4760 adlib-publication-4760 0f4f043b-6f60-3004-bed2-16fc649e150f Ruskin, Turner and the Pre-Raphaelites reference term-15214 adlib-term-15214 744af2c4-a2f2-37ad-bbf4-2cd00e91ed9b Victorian reference term-117274 adlib-term-117274 67f61aaa-73f2-3f2e-9c18-515c3859d17b drawing cabinet drawing cabinet object OBJECT
