John Saddler
​(1813-1892)

John Saddler engraved print
John Saddler (1813-1892)
 
Saddler was a pupil of George Cooke (1781-1834), with whom he worked on some of the plates for J M W Turner’s Picturesque views on the Southern Coast of England, 1826. He also engraved the ships in the print of Turner’s The Fighting Temeraire.
According to Bryan’s Dictionary, ‘He was one of the last who worthily carried on the traditions of English line-engraving. He did may book illustrations also, after Millais, Tenniel, Poynter, Doré and others. He was an occasional exhibitor at the Royal Society of British Artists as well as the Royal Academy. His sad death by his own hand in a fit of depression occurred at Wokingham, Berkshire, on March 29, 1892.’
