Bartlett William Henry

Bartlett, William Henry, was born in 1809, and articled to John Britton, the well-known archaeological architect, for whose works he did many drawings of English buildings. He next sought subjects in foreign countries, travelled over Europe, Asia, and America, and published about a thousand engravings, Dr. Beattie writing the explanatory text. Some of the more remarkable volumes were Walks about Jerusalem, The Nile Boat, The Overland Route, Footsteps of Our Lord, Pictures from Sicily, and The Pilgrim Fathers. He died on board ship in 1854, whilst travelling home from the East.
