Augustus Butler was a lithographer and zincographer (a process similar to lithography, but using zinc printing plates) mainly of landscape views after contemporary artists. He made two lithographs for Charles James Richardson’s ‘Studies of Ornamental Design’ in 1848. Butler also worked with William Gauci to produce lithographs for the publication ‘The Mansions of England and Wales’ (London, 1850), written by Edward Twycross. A few of the plates for this series of volumes were also drawn by Butler.
