James Merigot

James Merigot (1760–1824) was a French engraver and publisher (a.k.a Jacques-François II Mérigot, Jacques Mérigot, J. Mérigot), son of the parisian publisher Jacques-François I Mérigot.

He produced 20 aquatints from John Warwick Smith's watercolors to illustrate Views of the Lakes of Cumberland, with twenty aquatints by James Merigot (1791–5). He also did the engravings for A select collection of views and ruins in Rome and its vicinity – recently executed from drawings made upon the spot (1815). He wrote an artists' manual for amateurs in 1821.[1][2]
