Anthony Walker was a print maker, born in the year of 1726 in Thirsk, Yorkshire and died in 1765 in London at the age of only 39. He drafted and engraved a wide range of subjects matters, such as detailed historical, interior, biblical and travel scenes.
This iconographic image of the Mohawk warrior is well known and sought after – unfortunately I don’t know from which publication this portrait was taken.
Walker’s work is widely traded and collected privately as well as by public institutions – For example several of his prints are held by the MET in New York.

- Portrait of Carlos de Colonna, Marques de la EspinarBy Paulus PontiusLocated in Middletown, NY(after Anthonie Van Dyck) Engraving on cream laid paper, 9 1/4 x 6 3/8 inches (234 x 161 mm), full margins. Water stain throughout bottom, diagonal creases in the area of the bottom right corner, paper tape along top edge on recto. A very well inked impression. __________Flemish painter and engraver Paulus Pontius was born in Antwerp in 1603, and it was in this city that his full life would unfold. At the young age of 13, he was apprenticed to the still life painter Osias Beert, and subsequently to Lucas Vosterman, who was heavily associated with the workshop of Peter Paul Rubens. Vosterman trained Pontius in the skill of engraving, which he took to immediately, finding he had great skill at recreating paintings. Pontius was able to capture the minutiae of light and shadow found on the canvas, and mastered the ability to accurately render the subtleties of brushwork in this alternate media. His success as an engraver cemented his role in the workshop of Rubens, and in 1624, when Vosterman found himself at odds with Rubens, and left Antwerp for England, Pontius assumed his role as foremost engraver in the workshop. It was in this year that Pontius took up lodgings in Rubens's home, and continued to live there until 1631, when courtship and marriage (the first of three) brought him away. After the death of Rubens in 1640, Pontius embarked on a very successful career engraving reproductions of master works by artists including Rubens, Anthony van Dyck, Jacob Jordaens, Pieter van Avont, Abraham van Diepenbeeck...Category
