Joshua Reynolds' Discourses is a collection of lectures delivered by the renowned 18th-century English portrait painter, Sir Joshua Reynolds. Originally published in 1778, this edition was published in 1887 and includes all 15 of Reynolds' Discourses, which were delivered to the students of the Royal Academy between 1769 and 1790. The Discourses cover a wide range of topics related to art, including the principles of design, the importance of imagination, and the role of the artist in society. Reynolds' insights into the craft of painting and his thoughts on the nature of beauty and creativity have influenced generations of artists and art enthusiasts. This edition includes a preface by the editor, Henry Morley, and a biographical sketch of Reynolds. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of art or the development of artistic theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
