Frederick Stacpoole

Frederick Stacpoole ARA (1813 – 19 December 1907 London) was a British engraver, who produced reproductions of some of the most popular paintings of the Victorian period.

He was apparently son of Edmund Stacpoole, lieutenant R.N., whose death was reported in the Navy List of January 1816, and whose widow subsequently married a naval captain named Jefferies.

He died in London (at his home at 88 Clarendon Road, Putney) on 19 December 1907, and was buried in Brompton cemetery.

[1][3] Among Stacpoole's successful engravings were the Shadow of Death, after Holman Hunt (1877), and Pot Pourri: Rose Leaves and Lavender, after G. D. Leslie (1881).

Popular subjects were the Palm Offering, after Frederick Goodall (1868), and The Roll Call, after Elizabeth Thompson (Lady Butler) (1874).
