This portraitback to top
Reynolds painted many self-portraits and encouraged their wide dissemination by allowing selected engravers to copy his works free of charge. This engraving was made after a self-portrait painted in 1775 for the Grand Duke of Tuscany to mark Reynolds's election to the Academy in Florence.
