Thomas Patch (1725-1782)

"Thomas Patch (March 13, 1725 – April 30, 1782) was an English painter, printmaker in etching, physiognomist and art historian. He made a living from painting views of Florence and Tivoli and appears to have sold a number of painted caricature groups to members of the Anglo-Florentine community and to young British men on the Grand Tour. The largest collection of his paintings and prints is in the Lewis Walpole Library in Farmington, Connecticut." - (en.wikipedia.org 12.08.2021)
