Issac Gosset (1713-1799) was the sixth son of Jean Gosset, a Huguenot from Normandy who had settled in Jersey. He trained in London as a frame-carver and wax-modeller with his uncle Matthew Gosset (1683-1744) of Poland Street, Soho. Gosset was one of the most established 18th century modellers in wax and exhibited at the Society of Artists from 1760 to 1778.
