Francis Barlow

See also: Barlow

Francis Barlow or Barlowe , born towards 1626 and died in 1702 or 1704, is a painter and British engraver-illustrator.

Raise Londonien William Sheppard, portraitist carrying on only incidentally the activity of animalist painter, his inspiration is close to that of the Netherlander Melchior of Hondecoeter. If it contributed as an illustrator starting from 1666 to several editions of the Fables of Ésope, its work is in harmony with the taste of its contemporaries for nature, the animals and hunting.

Its reputation was such as it decorated with the ceilings of castles and worked with projects of monuments for the Abbaye of Westminster.
