Anthony Highmore Jnr was a draughtsman of topographical landscapes and an occasional portrait painter. Born in London in 1718 he was the son and pupil of Joseph Highmore, assisting his father until shortly before he retired to Canterbury in 1761, when Anthony himself abandoned painting. The set of perspective views of Hampton Court are amongst his best known works.
John Tinney was a publisher, engraver and print seller. He was apprenticed to the engraver John Stuart, establishing his own print shop in Fleet Street in the 1730s selling a range of goods including imported French prints, prints such as these views, as well as maps and drawing books. He died in 1761.
