Diana Hill (circa 1760–1844) was an English miniaturist. She was born in about 1760[1] as Diana Dietz[2] and married Haydock Hill in 1781.[3] Hill lived and worked in England and, after her first husband's death,[3] in Calcutta, India.[4] She returned to England, accompanied by her second husband, in 1806 and died in Twickenham on 10 February 1844.[3] [3] A miniature portrait of her second husband, Lieutenant Thomas Harriott, painted by her in 1791, is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.[5]
