by Sir Godfrey Kneller, Bt

Publisher. He took over the business of his famous uncle of the same name and lived in his uncle's home at Barn Elms where he built a special room for the Kit-Cat Club portraits. Although the Club stopped meeting around this time, the younger Tonson wanted to capitalise on their fame - especially as the Whigs had come to power. He paid John Faber over £108 to engrave the plates and, in 1735, published a luxury series of mezzotints after the portraits.
