William Fowler of Winterton, Lincolnshire (1761-1832), was an architect , builder, printmaker, artist and publisher who developed an interest in antiquities which he recorded in drawings and self-published prints. In 1796 Fowler made a series of drawings of Roman pavements discovered at Winterton. These were widely admired and Fowler subsequently decided to take his studies to London, so that they could be engraved by his brother-in-law, Mr Hill. He then published three volumes which contained a series of exceptional hand coloured engravings including twenty-five studies of decorative pavements, thirty-nine subjects from painted glass, five brasses and incised slabs, four fonts, and eight miscellaneous subjects. Fowler's volumes are in the collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and the British Museum.
