- Thomas_Rawlins_(Sculptor) abstract "Thomas Rawlins (1727-1789) was the son of a Norwich worsted weaver. He was trained by a London sculptor and ran a successful business as a monument mason in Norwich from circa 1743-81.In 1753 he advertising himself as, a carver and mason at Duke’s Palace Yard, Norwich of monuments and chimney pieces both ancient and modern.Rawlins specialised in coloured marbles. His style according to the art historian Nicholas Pevsner stretched from late Baroque Rococo to Neoclassical. This stylistic change is illustrated by two monuments in St Andrew's Church, Norwich, the first to John Custance (circa 1756) the second to Richard Dennison (circa 1767). His finest work, however, is considered to be a monument for Sir Thomas Churchman at St Giles' Church, Norwich which has a cameo medallion portrait and allegorical relief depicting Vanity, Time and Judgement.Rawlins also practised as an architect. His designs, like his contemporary Thomas Ivory architect of the Octagon Chapel (1756) were Neo-Palladian in style. He competed for the Royal Exchange, (City Hall, Dublin) in 1769, and exhibited designs at the Society of Artists in 1767, 1769 and 1770 and at the Royal Academy in 1773, 1774 and 1776.In 1765 the Ipswich Journal advertised a proposed work on architecture by Rawlins and in 1768 he published his book Familiar Architecture: or Original Designs of Houses for Gentlemen and Tradesmen; Parsonages; Summer Retreats; Banqueting-Rooms; and Churches. Further editions were issued in 1789 and 1795.His only documented architectural works include the entrance to St. Andrew's and Blackfriars' Hall, Norwich in 1774, (subsequently rebuilt) and Weston Hall in 1768 (demolished in 1926) at Weston Longville which later became the residence of Parson James Woodforde. His reinforcement of the south aisle of the church of Saint John the Baptist, Maddermarket, Norwich with ironwork was the subject of satirical verses.Rawlins died on Wednesday 18 March 1789, and is commemorated by a stone in the floor of the church of Saint John the Baptist, Maddermarket, Norwich".
