William Henry Bartlett. Born in Kentish Town, London in 1809, the young Bartlett was apprenticed to John Britton (1771-1857). He became one of the foremost illustrators of topography of his generation, traveling not just throughout Britain, but to the Americas in 1839-42. In the mid/late 1840s, he traveled extensively in the Balkans and the Middle East. He died of fever on board a ship returning from his last trip to Israel in 1854.
