Maxim Gauci
Maxim Gauci (11 February 1774 – 3 November 1854), born Massimo Gauci, was a Maltese lithographer who was active in the United Kingdom in the 19th century. He was an early exponent of lithography for botanical illustration. ==Life== Gauci was born in Valletta, Malta on 11 February 1774. He studied painting under Michele Busuttil, and was later sent to the Accademia di San Luca in Rome on the recommendation of Grand Master Emmanuel de Rohan-Polduc. Gauci eventually moved to Paris, and married there in 1804. While he was there, he was known as Maxime Gauci. He was father of William Gauci, another printer, and the landscape painter Paul Gauci.〔 Gauci travelled to Egypt and the Middle East before settling in London in 1809. He never went back to Malta, but he was often visited by his relatives and other Maltese people. Gauci remained active until his eyesight began to decline, and he died in London on 3 November 1854, at the age of 79. He was buried in his family grave at Highgate Cemetery.〔
