Charles Thompson (engraver)
Charles Thompson (1791–1843) was an English wood-engraver, who made a career in France.
==Life==
A younger brother of John Thompson, he was born in London. He was a pupil of John Bewick and Allen Robert Branston, and became a wood-engraver
In 1816 Thompson found work in Paris, where he executed illustrations to many publications. His work was admired, and in 1824 he was awarded a gold medal. He introduced into France the English method of carving the end of the wood, instead of in the direction of the grain, and using the graver instead of the knife.〔 The ''atelier'' he opened in 1817 instructed numerous French students.
Thompson died at Bourg-la-Reine, near Paris, on 19 May 1843, and his widow was granted a pension by the French government.〔
