Isaac Weld (1774–1856) (JP, FGSD, MRIA) was an Irish topographical writer, explorer, and artist. He was a member of the Royal Dublin Society
.
==Early life==
He was born on 15 March 1774 on Fleet Street, Dublin, Ireland. His name stems from his great grandfather's close friendship with Sir Isaac Newton, and as such both his grandfather and father were also named Isaac. His father was a close friend of Charles James Fox. His sister married George Ensor, and their half-brother was Charles Richard Weld,〔(Scientists )〕 traveller and author of ''"A Vacation Tour in the United States and Canada"'' (London, 1855) which was dedicated to his brother, Isaac. He was sent to the school of Samuel Whyte at Grafton Street and from there to another private school Barbauld at Palgrave near the town of Diss in Norfolk. From Diss he proceeded to Norwich as a private pupil of Dr William Enfield. He left Norwich in 1793. He married Alexandra Hope in Edinburgh in 1802. He had a daughter Esther, named after his sister, born 7 January 1804. In later life, Weld spent much time in Italy and particularly Rome, where he developed a friendship with Antonio Canova.
