Gainsborough Dupont (1754–1797 London) was a British artist, the nephew and pupil of Thomas Gainsborough, R.A.. ==Biography== He painted portraits and landscapes in imitation of the style of his uncle, and also landscapes with architectural ruins, in which he imitated Nicolas Poussin. His principal work is a large picture containing the portraits of the elder brethren of Trinity House, which is in their court-room on Tower Hill. He is, however, more distinguished as an engraver in mezzotinto, and his engravings of some of Gainsborough's portraits are imbued with the very spirit of the painter. The following are his best plates: *''George III.'', full length; after Gainsborough. *''Queen Charlotte'', full length; after the same. *''The Princess Royal, and the Princesses Augusta and Elizabeth'', full length; after the same. *''George, Lord Rodney'', full length; after the same. *''General Conway'', full length ; after the same. *''Colonel St. Leger'', full length; after the same. *''Rev. Sir Henry Bate Dudley, Bart.'', full length; after the same. *''Rev. Richard Graves'', half-length, oval; after the same.
