Biografi:

John Baptist Chatelain (1710–1758) was an English draughtsman and engraver of French background, specialized in landscapes. He was born in London into a Huguenot family, surname Phillippe, and changed his name later in life. He died in May 1758, as shown in an advertisement placed by William Bellers. Chatelain was employed by Boydell, especially in engraving with François Vivares the series of landscapes after Claude, Rembrandt, Guaspre, and others. He engraved, also for Boydell, eleven views in London and in Italy. He should not be confused with, among others, F.-B. Chatelain (fl. 1760–1770), who was a pupil of Louis-Simon Lempereur and Claude-Jean-Baptiste Chatelain, French engraver and revolutionary.
