Richardson, Jonathan, the elder (1665–1745), British portrait painter, whose
Theory of Painting (1715) was the first significant work on aesthetic theory by an English author; in the second edition, 1725, he added an influential essay on the
sublime. He had a wide circle of literary friends, amongst them
Pope,
Gay, and
Prior, and himself wrote a book on
Milton.
