James Mitan, but appears to have owed far more to the See also:influence of James See also:Heath, whose See also:works he privately and earnestly studied. His first employment on his own See also:account was See also:engraving illustrations for books, and among the most noteworthy of these See also:early plates were See also:Smirke's illustrations to See also:Don Quixote. His neat See also:style and smooth finish made his pictures very attractive and popular, and although he executed several large plates, his See also:chief See also:work through-out his See also:life was See also:book See also:illustration. His younger See also:brother, See also:Edward Finden, worked in See also:conjunction with him, and so much demand arose for their productions that ultimately a See also:company of assistants was engaged, and plates were produced in increasing See also:numbers, their quality as works of See also:art declining as their quantity See also:rose. The largest See also:plate executed by William Finden was the portrait of See also:- KING

Lawrence. For this work he received two thousand guineas, a sum larger than had ever before been paid for an engraved portrait. Finden's next and happiest works on a large See also:scale were the " Highlander's Return " and the "See also:Village Festival," after See also:Wilkie. Later in life he undertook, in co-operation with his brother, aided by their numerous See also:staff, the publication as well as the See also:production of various galleries of engravings. The first of these, a See also:series of landscape and portrait illustrations to the life and works of See also:Byron, appeared in 1833 and following years, and was very successful. But by his See also:Gallery of See also:British Art (in fifteen parts, 1838-184o), the most costly and best of these ventures, he lost the fruits of all his former success. Finden's last undertaking was an engraving on a large scale of See also:Hilton's " Crucifixion." The plate was bought by the Art See also:Union for £1470. He died in See also:London on the loth of See also:September 1852.
