Some Interesting Information about the Illustrators: W. H. Bartlett and J. D. Harding

WILLIAM HENRY BARTLETT (1809 - 1854) was a topographical illustrator who was articled to John Britton. He travelled extensively, visiting Syria, Egypt, Palestine and America. He died on this voyage around the world at sea at the tender age of 45 years. Click on either of the links above in order to read about Bartlett in more depth.

JAMES DUFFIELD HARDING (1797 - 1863) was a topographer, watercolourist, teacher and lithographer. He was born in Deptford, England. He studied with Samuel Prout and the engraver Charles Pye. Harding preferred drawing to engraving and worked as a landscape artist from an early age, exhibiting at the Royal Academy at the tender age of 13/14 years. He was an extremely talented lithographer and produced folios of works by Stanfield, Roberts and Bonington, for Hullmandel. He travelled to Italy, Normandy and the Rhine in the 1820s, 30s and 40s producing books of his excursions and also issued copy-books for amateur artists. Harding was admired by John Ruskin, his drawing pupil.

Harding's work can also be found in the following publications: Lithographic Drawing Book, 1832; Art, or The Use of The Lead Pencil, 1834; Principles and Practices of Art, 1845; Lessons on Trees, 1852; Scotland Delineated, 1858; Views in Spain, 1824; Britton's Cathedrals, 1832-6; Sketches at Home and Abroad, 1836 and The Book of South Wales, 1861. The Works of Byron with a Life and Illustrative Notes by William Anderson, Esq. c.1850.
