H Beard Print Collection is a 1 by Joshua Reynolds, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This print shows a man in a dark coat and white cravat, his face half-lit by sharp light. Sir Joshua Reynolds made it in 1770, copying one of his own oil portraits. The print’s crisp lines catch the doctor’s confident gaze, a quiet sign of the new print fashion in London. Reynolds often turned his oil sketches into prints for wider sales. See how the artist balanced light and shade here. Next, look up Reynolds, Joshua, Sir.
