The “Discourses”: lectures at the Royal Academy
Reynolds delivers a series of lectures at the Academy, the Discourses, remembered for their sensitivity and perception; in one of them he expresses the opinion that invention, strictly speaking, is little more than a new combination of images previously gathered and deposited in the memory. In a speech of 1776 he declares that the principles of art are grounded in reason — a declaration of the rationalism of English academic art; the Discourses are published in London in 1778.
