  John Skinner Prout, (1805-1876), artist, was born on 19 December 1805 at Plymouth, England. He arrived with his wife and seven children in Sydney on 14 December, 1840. He brought a complete lithographic printing press with him, and in early 1841 he started producing lithographed versions of his drawings of Sydney. Early in January 1843 Prout printed a lithographic view after one of his drawings of the interior of the Roman Catholic Cathedral in Sydney.
