June, John
John June (fl. 1746–1770) was an English engrave and printmaker. The bulk of his work were portraits and book illustrations, frequently on behalf of Robert Sayer; but some of his most interesting surviving works were satirical prints. Some of these were political - such as 'British Resentment or the French fairly Coopt at Louisbourg;' Others, like 'The Lady's Disaster' and 'The Beaux's Disaster' poked fun at the foibles of vanity in fashionable dress of the day. Nothing is known of his early life; He is likely the same John June who wedded Ann Robinson on May 15 1743 at the London's Rainbow Coffee House; if so, June may have been either Huguenot or a nondenominational Protestant : the Rainbow was a popular Huguenot meeting place. The Rainbow, in the Cornhill neighborhood of London, was in amongst booksellers and printers: a good fit.
