'This man was hired to depress art' sneered WILLIAM BLAKE at the autocratic, establishment figure of SIR JOSHUA REYNOLDS , first President of the Royal
Academy of Arts. No English artist enjoyed greater fame in his own lifetime than
Reynolds, but today perhaps he commands more respect than affection.
A massive exhibition at the Royal Academy provides a chance to look again at a great artist who put high theatre into his pictures of the nobility of his age, and yet could paint intimate masterpieces of children. courtesans and writers.
