Career
Dudley was a pupil of Wenceslaus Hollar, and his plates are etched in a manner resembling, but greatly inferior to, his master"s style. A book-plate in the print room of the British Museum shows him to have had considerable technical skill, but his portraits and figures are ill drawn. His most important work was a series of etchings executed in 1678, representing the life of Æsop, from drawings by Francis Barlow, (now in the print room aforesaid), and added by Barlow to his second edition of the ‘Fables’ (1687).
