Charles Keene (artist)
Charles Samuel Keene (10 August 1823–4 January 1891) was an English artist and illustrator, who worked in black and white.
==Early life==
The son of Samuel Browne Keene, a solicitor, he was born at Hornsey. Educated at the Ipswich School until his sixteenth year, he early showed artistic leanings. Two years after the death of his father he was articled to a London solicitor, but, the occupation proving uncongenial, he was removed to the office of an architect, Mr Pukington. His spare time was now spent in drawing historical and nautical subjects in watercolor. For these trifles his mother, to whose energy and common sense he was greatly indebted, soon found a purchaser, through whom he was brought to the notice of the Whympers, the wood-engravers. This led to his being bound to them as apprentice for five years. His earliest known design is the frontispiece, signed Chas. Keene, to ''The Adventures of Dick Boldhero in Search of his Uncle, &c.'' (Darton & Co., 1842). His term of apprenticeship over, he hired as studio an attic in the block of buildings standing, up to 1900, between the Strand and Holywell Street, and was soon hard at work for the ''Illustrated London News''. At this time he was a member of the Artists Society in Clipstone Street, afterwards removed to the Langham studios.
