Thomas Cooper Gotch or T.C. Gotch (1854–1931) was an English Pre-Raphaelite painter〔(''Thomas Gotch Cooper.'' ) Art Encyclopedia.〕 and book illustrator, and brother of John Alfred Gotch, the architect. Gotch studied art in London and Antwerp before he married and studied in Paris with his wife, Caroline, a fellow artist. Returning to Britain, they settled into the Newlyn art colony in Cornwall. He first made paintings of natural, pastoral settings before immersing himself in the romantic, Pre-Raphaelite romantic style for which he is best known. His daughter was often a model for the colourful depictions of young girls. His works have been exhibited at the Royal Academy, Royal College of Art and the Paris Salon. ==Personal life== Thomas Gotch was born 10 December 1854 in the Mission House in Kettering, Northamptonshire.〔(''Thomas Cooper Gotch.'' ) Cornwall Artists.
