Description: Life & Times of Sir Joshua Reynolds By C. R. Leslie & Tom Taylor 1865 1st. Very nice example of this two volume set. Beautiful marbling and leather binding. The front board and first few pages have separated on volume #1 (see pics). Priced accordingly. Easy fix and looks exquisite on the shelf.

He promoted the "Grand Style" in painting which depended on idealization of the imperfect. He was a founder and first president of the Royal Academy of Arts, and was knighted by George III in 1769.
