Thomas Lound (13 July 1801 – 18 January 1861) was an amateur English painter and etcher of landscapes, who specialised in depictions of his home county of Norfolk.

Born into a wealthy brewing family, Lound was affluent enough to possess his own photographic equipment as well as to pursue his passion for art.

Lound was popular amongst his contemporaries, and close friends with the Norwich artists Robert Leman, Henry Bright and John Middleton.

Throughout his life he suffered from ill health, and he died suddenly of apoplexy at the age of 59, a year after the deaths of his wife and son.

Lound's etchings, never produced for public display, show the influence of drypoint technique of Edward Thomas Daniell.

An amateur artist, he was involved with his family's brewing business in Norwich, Charles Tompson & Sons, which was the source of his wealth.

He exhibited waxed-paper views of Ely Cathedral, Norwich fish market, and the ruins of Bromholm Priory.

[16] Lound, who suffered from ill health all his life, died suddenly of apoplexy on 18 January 1861 whilst at his Norwich house in King Street.

[21] He was a pupil of the artist John Sell Cotman, although his influence was not as great as that of the English landscape painter David Cox.

[24] Writing in the 1980s, the art historian Andrew Moore has praised View of Norwich (Mill in Foreground) as "the most perfect example of Lound's original compositions".

[5] Lound was a competent copyist, reproducing works such as Cotman's St. Martin's Gate, Norwich and his Yarmouth Jetty, as well as paintings by John Crome, Robert Dixon, Cox and Joseph Stannard.
