Translation of the first seven of Reynolds' discourses, by Giuseppe Baretti.
Second ed., edited by Luigi Siries.
Baretti's response to the publication of the 1st ed. (Firenze, 1778) can be found in his privately printed pamphlet "Lettera scritta da Giuseppe Baretti a Luigi Siries a Firenze," in which he criticizes Siries for not mentioning Baretti's name in the publication and for altering the text.--cf. Hilles, F.W. Literary career of Sir Joshua Reynolds (1936 ed.), pp. 51-59.
Portrait of Reynolds by Amadio Gabrieli; after Franco Corsi.
