Frederick Waddy (1848–1901) was a British artist, caricaturist, cartoonist and printmaker.
Waddy provided cartoon caricatures of many of the leading men of his day for the weekly literary magazine Once a Week. The 1873 publication Cartoon Portraits and Biographical Sketches of Men of the Day included illustrations by Waddy accompanying anonymous essays on fifty notable subjects, including Darwin, Swinburne, Tennyson, and Browning.[1][2]
