This 1778 work, collecting addresses made by Joshua Reynolds to the Royal Academy between 1769 and 1776, presents his views of the purpose of art, emphasising the intellectual dignity of the 'great style' of the Florentine Renaissance masters who so greatly influenced the paintings of the eighteenth century.
