James Fittler (October 1758, in London – 2 December 1835) was a British engraver of portraits and landscapes and an illustrator of books. He was appointed by King George III to be his marine engraver.

Dominic Serres and his eldest son John Thomas were both prolific artists and were leading exponents of the English marine school during the second half of the eighteenth century. In 1765, Serres became a member of the Incorporated Society of Artists and in 1768 he was chosen as one of the foundation members of the Royal Academy. Over thirty years, he exhibited 108 paintings at the Royal Academy, 21 paintings at the Free Society and eight paintings at the Incorporated Society of Artists. Serres was appointed as marine painter to George III and in 1792 as Librarian to the Royal Academy. Dominic Serres is well represented in the National Maritime Museum and in the English Royal Collection.
