DOYLE, RICHARD (1824-1883) ,
English
  artist, son of John Doyle, the caricaturist known as " H. B." (1797-1868), was born in London in 1824. His father's " Political Sketches " took the town by
storm
  in the days of Lord Grey and Lord Melbourne. The son was an extremely precocious artist, and in his "
Home
  for the Holidays," done when he was twelve, and his " Comic
English
  Histories,"
drawn
  four years later, he showed extraordinary gifts of humour and fancy. He had no art training outside his father's studio. In 1843 he joined the staff of Punch, drawing cartoons and a vast number of illustrations, but he retired in 185o, in consequence of the attitude adopted by that
paper
  towards what was known as " the papal aggression," and especially towards the
pope
  himself. In 1854 he published his " Continental Tour of Brown, Jones and
Robinson
 ." His illustrations to three of the Christmas Books of Charles Dickens, and to The Newcomes by
Thackeray
 , are reckoned among his
principal
  achievements; and his fanciful pictures of elves and fairies have always been general favourites. He died on the 11th of December 1883. His most popular drawing is his cover of Punch.
