In London he became a friend of Hogarth and probably taught Gainsborough. He illustrated Gay's Fables, Shakespeare, and Dryden, and was one of the first artists to illustrate the novel, designing engravings for Richardson's Pamela \(1742\) and Fielding's Tom Jones \(1750\). Although not an artist of outstanding talent, he is important for helping to introduce the French Rococo style to England. ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
