William Pope was an English-Canadian naturalist and amateur painter who lived most of his life in Ontario, Canada. Notable wildlife artist Fenwick Lansdowne stated that Pope "gave us the first comprehensive, well executed pictorial record of Canadian birds." According to Pope's biographer, Pope contributed "a great deal" to Canada's settler heritage through his paintings and journals.
