''[[A Philosopher Lecturing on the Orrery]]'' shows an early mechanism for demonstrating the movement of the planets around the sun, and an actual [[orrery]] is on display in the centre of the gallery in front of the painting. The Scottish scientist, astronomer and lecturer [[James Ferguson (1710–1776)|James Ferguson]] undertook a series of lectures in Derby in July 1762.<ref>[http://www.search.revolutionaryplayers.org.uk/content/files/81/76/355.rtf Search.revolutionaryplayers.org.uk]</ref> They were based on his book ''Lectures on Select Subjects in Mechanics, Hydrostatics, Pneumatics, Optics &c''., published in 1760. In order to illustrate his lectures he used various machines, models and instruments. Wright possibly attended Ferguson’s lecture, especially as tickets for the event were available from [[John Whitehurst]], his close neighbour, the clockmaker and scientist. The artist could also have drawn on Whitehurst’s practical knowledge to find out more about the orrery and its operation.
