Excerpt from Sir Joshua Reynolds and His Works: Gleanings From His Diary, Unpublished Manuscripts, and From Other Sources
I should be extremely sorry to publish any thing that could, in the smallest degree, detract from the reputation of so eminent I. Man; but I believe these private notes, jotted down in his sketch book, merely to assist his memory, and without any care or nicety of expression, will be read with interest - showing, as they do, the powers of observation, and the working of his mind, at so early a period of his life, and the lasting effect which the sight of the great master-pieces of Venetian coloring had upon him.
With this view, I trust the following pages will not be devoid of a certain degree of interest; and I am further encouraged to make them public by the advice and approbation of persons best qualified to judge. The author of The Stones of Venice, after a perusal of the ms., said, Publish them, by all means; the private notes of Reynolds are most precious.
