Short biography
Charles Edmund Brock was an English painter and book illustrator. Born in London in 1870, he was the son of Edmund Brock (1841-1921), a specialist reader in oriental languages for the Cambridge University Press, and his wife Mary Ann Louise. The eldest of four brothers, from 1894 he shared a studio with one of them, Henry Matthew Brock, who was also an illustrator.

Brock studied briefly under sculptor Henry Wiles, and received his first book commission in 1890, at the age of twenty. He went on to become a successful and prolific illustrator, working on books from such authors as Jonathan Swift, William Thackeray, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, and George Eliot. Brock also contributed pieces to several magazines such as The Quiver, The Strand, and Pearsons. He used the Cambridge college libraries for his "picture research." He didn't work or publish from 1910 onward, dying in 1938.
