James Fittler
James Fittler belongs to the tradition of British line engraving, a craft he applied to portraiture and reproductive printmaking. His plates were cut with the burin, giving his subjects a firm, linear clarity typical of the period's engraved portraiture. The archive holds a single sheet by him, a portrait of a Spanish officer, engraved in 1813. That date places the impression within the early nineteenth century, and any later printings in the range should be read as impressions up to that year.
