Covent Garden (originally a convent garden) was laid out by Inigo Jones from 1631-39 in the style of an Italian Piazza. It was in Ruskin 's time the principal vegetable, fruit and flower market of London, having been established as a market in 1671. The nineteenth-century Central Market Building, utilizing the iron and glass constructional techniques of the Industrial Revolution, remains. Covent Garden is also significant for Ruskin as the birthplace of Turner. This is described in the chapter entitled 'Two Boyhoods' from Modern Painters V ( Works, 7.376).
