A founding member of the Royal Academy and a rival of its first President, Sir Joshua Reynolds, Thomas Gainsborough was one of the leading portraitists of late 18th-century England. Unlike Reynolds, he was a favourite painter of King George III and Queen Charlotte. Gainsborough’s landscapes were also hugely influential and helped establish the importance of landscape as a category of painting in Britain.
