Alexander Hay Ritchie
Printmaking
Alexander Hay Ritchie was a Scottish engraver and printmaker working primarily in steel and copper engraving during the nineteenth century. Active from the mid-1800s until his death in 1895, he produced reproductive engravings and original prints that circulated widely in Britain and North America. His technical mastery of line engraving made him a significant figure in the Victorian print trade, though detailed records of his major commissions and exhibitions remain limited. This profile will be expanded as more verified source material becomes available.
