James Caldwall (1739–1822) was an English draughtsman and engraver.




Life


Caldwall was born in London in 1739, and studied under John Keyse Sherwin. He is known mainly for his portraits, although he also engraved genre and military subjects. He employed a technique which combined both engraving and etching. Between 1768 and 1780 he exhibited 29 works at the Free Society of Artists and one at the Society of Artists. He died in 1822.
His brother, John Caldwall, who died in 1819, was a miniature painter who worked in Scotland.
