He is credited with the invention of commercially viable color printing. Though color printing had been developed in China centuries before, it was not commercially viable. However, in early years of the 19th century the process of color printing had been revived by George Savage, a Yorkshire-man in London. It was to be Savage's methods upon which Baxter, already an accomplished artist and engraver, was to improve. In 1828, Baxter began experimenting with color printing by means of woodblocks.
