'''The Club''' was a London [[dining club]] founded in February [[1764]] by the artist [[Joshua Reynolds]] and essayist [[Samuel Johnson]]. |
|||
==Description== |
|||
Initially, the club would meet one evening per week at seven, at the Turk's Head Inn in [[Gerrard Street, London|Gerrard Street]], [[Soho]]. Later, meetings were reduced to once per [[fortnight]] whilst Parliament was in session, and were held at rooms in [[St James's Street]]. Though the initial suggestion was Reynolds', it is Dr Johnson whose name is most closely associated with the Club. [[John Timbs]], in his ''Club Life in London'', gives an account of the Club's centennial dinner in [[1864]], which was celebrated at the Clarendon hotel. [[Henry Hart Milman]], the English historian, was treasurer. The Club's toast, no doubt employing a bit of wishful thinking, was "''[[Esto perpetua]]''". |
