(1822 - 1902)
Henry Lemon was an engraver of portraits and genre subjects. He made engravings after the work of contemporary artists, including several after works by genre painter Thomas Webster (1800-1886). He was based in London, living at Winchester Road, St John’s Wood and later at Woburn Place, Bloomsbury. Notices in ‘The London Gazette’ indicate that in 1866 he was declared bankrupt. However, he continued to work and his engraving of Robert Hannah’s painting of ‘William Harvey Demonstrating on the Heart of a Deer to King Charles I and the Boy Prince’ was published in about 1870.
