James C. Allen (engraver)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

James Charles Allen (3 November 1790 – 1833)[1] was an English line-engraver from London.

He was the son of William Allen, a Smithfield salesman, and his wife, Elizabeth.[2]

Allen was taught by William Bernard Cooke, and in conjunction with whom he engraved and published in 1821 Views of the Colosseum, from drawings by Major-General Cockburn, and in 1825 Views in the South of France, chiefly on the Rhone, from drawings by Peter De Wint, after original sketches by John Hughes. He likewise engraved a spirited plate of the Defeat of the Spanish Armada, after P. J. de Loutherbourg, for the Gallery of Greenwich Hospital; St. Mawes, Cornwall, after Turner, for Cooke's Picturesque Views on the Southern Coast of England; Portsmouth from Spithead, after Stanfield; and The Temple of Isis, after Cockburn. He excelled especially in etching, and was much employed on illustrations for books.[3]

His work remains in the British Museum.[4]
