Robert Dunkarton (1744–1811), a mezzotint engraver, was born in London in 1744. He was a pupil of Pether, and painted a few portraits, some of which, as also some portraits in crayons, were exhibited at the Royal Academy and at Spring Gardens until 1779. But his greatest success was gained as a mezzotint engraver. His plates are dated from 1770 to 1811, after which year there is no record of him. He engraved in a clear, finished style several portraits and historical subjects, of which the following are the principal: ==Portraits== *''George, Lord Lyttelton''; after West. *''Jonas Hanway''; after E. Edwards. *''Dr. Arne''; after W. Humphrey. *''Miss Horneck''; after Sir Joshua Reynolds. *''John Elliot''; after N. Dance. *''Miss Bamfylde''; after W. Peters. *''James Brindley, engineer''; after Francis Parsons. *''Miss Catley, in the character of Euphrosyne''; after Lawronson. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Robert Dunkarton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
