"Henry Bryan Hall (11 May 1808 London – 25 April 1884 Morrisania, New York), was an English stipple engraver and portrait painter. He was apprenticed to the engravers Benjamin Smith and Henry Meyer. Later he worked for Henry Thomas Ryall who was designated ´Portrait and Historical Engraver to Her Majesty, Queen Victoria´. Hall produced plates for Ryall´s Eminent Conservative Statesmen (1837–38) and assisted in the engraving of seventy portraits for Ryall´s plate of The Coronation of Queen Victoria after George Hayter (1838–42). Hall also engraved portraits of English Protestant martyrs for C. Birch (1839) and provided plates for John Wilson and Robert Chambers´s The Land of Burns (1840), Finden´s Gallery of Beauty (1841), John William Carleton´s Sporting Sketch-Book (1842), and John Kitto´s Gallery of Scripture Engravings (1846–49)." - (Wikipedia (en) 22.12.2019)
