Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Times of Sir Joshua Reynolds, Vol. 1 of 2: With Notices of Some of His Cotemporaries; With Portraits and Illustrations But Mr. Leslie did not live to complete his labour of love.

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literary Works of Sir Joshua Reynolds to Which Is Prefixed a Memoir of the Author, Vol. 1 of 2: With Remarks on His Professional Character, Illustrative of His Principles and Practice It appeared to me, that former Lives of Sir Joshua were not well adapted to the use of students; and, in availing myself of the materials which other writers have afforded me, I have endeavoured to give a more artist-like character to that which I submit to your inspection, and have added new matter connected with painting, whenever an opportunity of introducing it presented itself. Had I been able to confine myself more exclusively to the subject of art, I should, perhaps, have succeeded better in giving to my work the character which I intended it to assume; but the incidents of Reynolds's life, connected as they are with the biography of other celebrated characters of his time, and interesting as they have hitherto been considered, as forming part of the history of an individual with whom all that is in any way associated is matter of comparative importance, must always have a claim to notoriety as objects of public inquiry and solicitude; and I should not have been justified in omitting them, could I even have persuaded myself to do so.

He endeavoured, therefore, to keep down, as much as he could, the aspiring mind of his scholar, and instead of setting him to study after the living model, or the antique, be employed him in copying drawings, particularly those of Guer cino. The youth complied with his humour, and executed every task with an accuracy and spirit that served to increase the astonishment and spleen of Hudson. In this manner he may he said to have wasted above two years of the four for which he was articled; but though his master did all that lay in his power to hinder the progress of his pupil, he could not prevent the ascendency which he dreaded. The portrait of a domestic female, painted by young Reynolds, exhibited such a strength of expression and exactness of resemblance, that Hudson, while he admired the.

The estimation in which we stand In respect to our neighbours, will be in proportion to the degree in which we excel or are inferior to them in the acquisition of intellectual excellence, of which T'rade and its consequential riches must be acknow ledged to give the means; but a people whose whole attention is absorbed in those means, and who forget the end, can aspire but little above the rank of a barbarous nation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Joshua Reynolds Probably there is no artist who has had more biographers than Sir Joshua Reynolds, nor is there any name in the list of England's great painters better known than that of the first President of the Royal Academy. Shortly after his death his pupil Northcote and his friend Malone put forth lives of Reynolds, both of which are extremely valuable as original authorities. They were succeeded by Farrington and Beechey, both artists themselves, but who have in their turn been supplanted by the magnificent work begun by Mr. Leslie and completed by Mr. Tom Taylor. It is to this latter book that all future biographers of Sir Joshua must go for materials. It is a perfect mine of information, and no praise can be too high for the careful and diligent manner in which the authors have collected from all sources information about the great master.

AThe new attitude towards Sir Joshua's work is here dealt with, and the writer, who is neither so uncritical towards it as are some, nor yet so lacking in appreciation of it as are others, has tried to accord to it a frank treatment.

Gentlemen, The honour which the Arts acquire by being permitted to take possession of this noble habitation, is one of the most considerable of the many instances we have received of His Majesty's protection; and the strongest proof of his desire to make the Academy respectable. Nothing has been left undone, that might contribute to excite our pursuit, or to reward our attainments. We have already the happiness of seeing the Arts in a state to which they never before arrived in this nation. This Building, in which we are now assembled, will remain to many future ages an illustrious specimen of the Architect's abilities.
