description: Since 1768, the Royal Academy of Arts in London has offered the world’s largest open contemporary art exhibition. Paintings, drawings, prints, sculpture, and the best of the year’s architectural projects are all represented, with works by Royal Academicians appearing alongside those by members of the public—1,000-plus pieces selected from more than 10,000 entries. First published in the 1870s, Royal Academy Illustrated presents the highlights of each year’s show and is a fascinating barometer of changing artistic tastes.
