Thomas Malton: A British engraver, publisher and teacher, Thomas Malton gained his reputation for topographical and architectural views around England, Scotland and Ireland. Thomas Malton first studied architecture in Dublin, under John Gandon. He then studied art techniques in London at the Royal Academy Schools. Thomas Malton was frequently employed by London publishers and even worked with Thomas Rowlandson, engraving some of this artist's satirical designs. He is, however, best known for his sets of views such as, Views of Cambridge (1798-1800) and Views of Oxford (1802). | |
Thomas Malton was also a well respected teacher of topographical art. Among his students in this discipline was J. M. W. Turner. Malton was an annual exhibitor at the Royal Academy from 1774 to 1802 and received a gold medal from the Academy in 1782. | |
