"Who is this artist?" Topic

I've fortunately come into possession of two uniform plates (French drummer and Red Lancers of the French Guard) done by Beaugard. I was hoping someone on this site would know of him and could give me more background on the artist. Thanks in advance!

Artist would appear to be:
J B Beaugard also known as Thil.
There doesn't appear to be much out there. link
Translated this says:

"J. B. Beaugard called Thil (active in the years 1822 – 1828) – French painter and lithographer, was a student of Anne-Louis Girodet-Trioson and modeled his teacher in painting classicist, academic portraits and historical compositions. In the years 1822-1827 he took part in the official Paris Salons – the attention of critics was already drawn to his first paintings showing Tobias setting out on a journey, as well as Amazila and Telasco. He was a lithographer, repeating the compositions of his master Girodet-Trioson and other artists in this technique. He was also the author of numerous watercolours depicting studies of uniforms of soldiers of various formations of Napoleon's army."

Thanks! That is very helpful. That dates the plates much earlier than I thought, which was the end of the 1800s.
