Thomas Gaugain
Thomas Gaugain (1756–1812〔http://www.artfact.com/artist/gaugain-thomas-oif04b10o9〕) was a stipple-engraver.
== Life ==
Gaugain was born at Abbeville in France in 1756, and moved to England with his family while still young. He studied engraving under Richard Houston. He began his artistic career as a painter, and exhibited in 1778 at the Royal Academy, showing ''A Moravian Peasant'', ''The Shepherdess of the Alps'', and a portrait. He continued to exhibit there up to 1782.
From 1780 he devoted himself principally to engraving, using the stipple method, and engraving some of his own designs. He showed four of these, printed in colours – ''Annette'', ''Lubin'', ''May-day'', and ''The Chimney Sweeper's Garland''– at the exhibition of the Free Society of Artists in 1783. Gaugain ranks among the best stipple-engravers of the period, and produced a large number of engravings. Gaugain lived for some years at 4 Little Compton Street, Soho, London. It is not certain when he died, but the engraving mentioned last was published in 1809, and he very probably died soon after that date.
He married Mariane Ame Le Cointe on 17 June 1787.〔http://www.npg.org.uk/research/programmes/directory-of-british-picture-restorers/british-picture-restorers-1630-1950-g.php〕
