Oscar Wilde was a student of John Ruskin, art professor, at Oxford. Wilde led the "art for art's sake" aesthetic movement. Ruskin was the popularizer of the Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood of artists. Wilde was famous for making a humorous scene by overdressing. Wilde made great use of chiasmus in his writing, and is one of the most quoted authors who ever lived.
