Sir Thomas Gooch, 4th Baronet
''Sir'' is a formal honorific address in English for men, derived from Sire in the High Middle Ages. Both are derived from the old French "Sieur" (Lord), brought to England by the French-speaking Normans, and which now exist in French only as part of "Monsieur", with the equivalent "My Lord" in English. Traditionally, as governed by law and custom, Sir is used for men titled as knights, often as members of orders of chivalry, as well as later applied to baronets and other offices. As the female equivalent for knighthood is damehood, the female equivalent term is typically Dame. The wife of a knight or baronet tends to be addressed as Lady, although a few exceptions and interchanges of these uses exist. Additionally, since the late modern period, Sir has been used as a respectful way to address a man of superior social status or military rank. Equivalent terms of address for women are Madam (shortened to Ma'am), in addition to social honorifics such as Mrs, Ms or Miss ...

Thomas Gooch (artist)
Thomas Gooch (1750 – 1802) was an English artist who also specialised in painting animals, particularly dog and horse portraiture. No portraits of the artist survive. Life and work Thomas Gooch was born in London circa 1750 where he lived for most of his life; he died at Lyndhurst, Hampshire in 1802. Details on his family life are scant. More famous for his work depicting animals, Gooch did also paint images of those that owned the horses and dogs he more readily depicted. He famously carried out a study of the life of a racehorse as a set of six images, depicting the animal's misuse after a life of racing as a thoroughbred. The Life and Death of a Racehorse, completed in 1792 was a popular work and reproduced as aquatint prints and often accompanied with a thought-provoking text on animal cruelty. Gooch was an artist who was popular with the landed gentry and prolific, exhibiting many times (76 paintings submitted) at the Royal Academy The Royal Academy of Arts (R ...
