Born in 1764, George Bulteel Fisher was an army officer and an amateur water colourist. He first arrived in Gibraltar in 1790 but left for Canada the following year as some sort of aide de camp to Prince Edward, the Duke of Kent and future Governor of Gibraltar.
When he returned to England several years later he arranged with John William Edy to engrave Six Views of North America which were duly published together with a descriptive pamphlet dedicated to Prince Edward.
