Francis Barlow (c. 1626 – 1704) was an English painter, etcher, and illustrator. ==Life== Barlow's first major work was the illustration (via 12 plates) of Edward Benlowe's ''Theophila'' (1652). The Victoria and Albert Museum holds two different copies of the book, one of which includes an original drawing by Barlow.〔Hodnett, Edward. ''Francis Barlow: first master of English book illustration.'' London: Scolar, 1978. ISBN 0-85967-350-2. p. 132〕 He published and illustrated an edition of ''Aesop's Fables'' in 1666 and also illustrated ''Aesopic's'' (or ''Aesopics'', 1668), another edition of the fables, and an augmented 1687 edition of his earlier work, whereupon he may have given up work on illustration. From around 1653, Barlow worked in London as a painter of animals, birds, and country life. His work can be seen at Ham House and Clandon Park. In terms of composition, his paintings are weak, tending to be filled with the animals and so forth that he depicts. However, most of the elements of his paintings are very well observed.〔This evaluation is Jeffree's.〕 Barlow is thought to have died in poverty; the day of his death is unknown but he was buried on 11 August 1704.
