About this product

Product Information

Here, Ian McIntyre traces Joshua Reynolds' journey from his humble origins as the seventh child of the Reverend Samuel Reynolds in Devon to the splendour and pomp of his funeral at St Paul's Cathedral in 1792. He examines in detail all aspects of his artistic and personal life, including his experimental history and fancy paintings, as well as his better-known work as a portrait painter. McIntyre also explains Reynolds' thinking about art history in the context of his life in 18th-century England. Reynolds was a central figure in the development of British art, and in this biography McIntyre explores fully the nature and extent of his contribution.

    • The definitive biography

      This is a very well-researched and deeply insightful biography of the flawed artistic genius. It has a great deal of contextual information as well as much biographical information on the men and women he painted and/or knew socially. There are extensive footnotes, as well of course as full source references at the back. It's unlikely this book will be supplanted for the foreseeable future and it's a shame therefore it's not currently in print (August 2018). Having said all this it can be a demanding read read at times as it does contain so much detail.
