Francis Towne

(bapt. Isleworth, Middlesex [now in Greater London], 19 Aug. 1739; d London, 7 July 1816). English landscape painter, primarily in watercolour. He spent most of his life in Exeter, where he earned a good living as a teacher, and his work was little known outside his locality, but he is now regarded as one of the most individual watercolourists of his day.
