At the age of fourteen, he ran away and joined a troupe of strolling players but by the 1770s, he had become a successful miniature painter, with paintings regularly exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1777. He published a number of works in collaboration with his son, an engraver, and his brother, Edward, a librarian. The brothers set up successful bookshops and publishing businesses first in Fleet Street and then in Pall Mall, where the first volume of the present work was published.
