Joseph Halfpenny was an 18th-century English engraver known for his exquisite illustrated works.

These drawings became highly desirable throughout England and were popular amongst architects, Cathedral historians, and illustrators. They were initially published in parts over the course of a few years and were first published in their entirety in 1800.
