(Circle of) Joshua Reynolds Art

British, 1723-1792
Sir Joshua Reynolds PRA was the leading English portrait artist of the 18th century, and first president of the Royal Academy. Through study of ancient and Italian Renaissance art and of the work of Rembrandt, Rubens, and Van Dyck, he brought great variety and dignity to British portraiture. In 1740 Reynolds was apprenticed to the fashionable London portraitist Thomas Hudson. Between 1749 and 1752, Reynolds travelled abroad, mainly living and studying in Italy. Upon his return he set up practice in London shortly after his return and quickly established himself as the England’s foremost portrait painter. Reynolds was a key figure in the intellectual life of London, and a friend of Dr Johnson. When the Royal Academy was founded in 1768 Reynolds was elected its first President and was knighted by King George III the following year. Although believing that history painting was the noblest work of the painter, he had little opportunity to practise it, and his greatest works are his portraits.

Anthony van Dyck, Engraving Ernest de Mansfeld, c. 1654, Portrait, Iconographie
By (After) Anthony Van Dyck
Located in Greven, DE
A wonderfully detailed and charismatic portrait, this exquisite work illustrates the technical mastery and artistic vision of Van Dyck. Ernest de Mansfeld's stately yet approachable expression reflects Van Dyck's refined ability to comfort and relax his subjects, resulting in a realistic and acute portrait. Ernest de Mansfeld was a German military commander during the early years of the Thirty Years War. Donning his armor and an ornate, lace collar, de Mansfeld appears as a strong commander. Without a hint of a smile, he calmly gazes out, the definition of cool and collected. Van Dyck accurately captures the sense that de Mansfeld is a man who takes his job seriously, a man worthy of commanding an army in battle. This portrait is a Mauquoy-Hendrickx State II (of II), engraved by Robertus van Voerst in collaboration with Anthony van Dyck (Antwerp, 1559 - London, 1641) as part of his Iconographie series of engraved portraits of famous people...

By John Webber
Located in Paonia, CO
A Man of the Sandwich Islands Dancing (Hawaii) is from the 1784 First Edition Atlas Accompanying Capt. James Cook and King; Third and Final Voyage of Captain James Cook. John Webber (1752-1793) was the official artist for the third voyage of Captain James Cook (1728-1779). The purpose of this voyage was to discover the Northwest Passage and to explore the Pacific Ocean north of the Equator. These engravings were published in 1784-85 by G. Nichol and Thomas Cadell of London in the four large format atlas, Voyage to the Pacific Ocean. Captain Cook was an extraordinary explorer known for discovering and mapping unknown territory and for his many contributions to the scientific world. These original engravings from Webber’s drawings and paintings are only a glimpse into this great man’s historical contributions that make him one of the greatest explorers of all times. This image shows a Hawaiian dancer...
