Monument to John Ashburnham and his two wives in Ashburnham

Thomas Burman (1618–1674) was a 17th century English sculptor based in London.

Life

[edit]

Born in London in 1618 of Jewish parentage he was indentured as a bound apprentice to mason and sculptor Edward Marshall in 1633. He began working independently around 1640.[1]

Around 1650 he took on John Bushnell as an apprentice who proved a worthy student. Andre Charles Boulle also studied under him.[2]

He died on 17 March 1674 in the parish of St Martin's and is buried in the churchyard of St Paul's in Covent Garden in central London.

Family

[edit]

He was married to Rebekeh (Rebecca). They had a son Balthasar Burman who was also a sculptor - his most notable work being the tomb of Bishop Brian DuppainWestminster Abbey.
