William Raddon
Raddon was an engraver who also worked as a designer and a painter. As well as portraits, his work often depicted entomological subjects. For this reason, his friend, Henry Fuseli, recommended him to the natural history illustrator, Sydenham Edwards, in an effort to gain Raddon commissions.
