Joshua Reynolds RA 300th Birthday Red Blue Pin Badge
Our first president, Joshua Reynolds, was considered the leading portrait painter of his day and a key figure in the Academy. Still in print today, and widely translated, his groundbreaking Discourses in Art was hugely influential on the development of British art.
Created specially for the RA Shop, this commemorative pin badge marks the artist's 300th birthday.

Reynolds played a central role in organising the group of 34 artists and architects who signed a petition to found a Royal Academy of Arts, which was to hold annual exhibitions of living artists’ work (now known as the Summer Exhibition) and establish a free art school. After King George III approved the petition, Reynolds was unanimously elected the Academy’s President and knighted the following year.
