Charles Robinson (illustrator)

Charles Robinson (1870–1937) was a prolific British book illustrator.

[3] He served an apprenticeship as a printer and took art lessons in the evenings.

He won a place at the Royal Academy in 1892 but was unable to take it up due to lack of finances.

The first full book he illustrated was Robert Louis Stevenson's A Child's Garden of Verses (1896) which includes over 100 pen and ink drawings.

Robinson married Edith Mary Favatt in 1897 in Middlesex, England[4][5] and they were the parents of four daughters and two sons.
