Charles Hunt Sr

Charles Hunt Sr. (1803 - 1877) was active/lived in United Kingdom, England.  Charles Hunt Sr is known for Interior scenes with children, humorous genre and history painting.

Charles Hunt was a painter of contemporary genre, often humorous, as well as historical subjects; but he is usually associated with charming interior scenes with mischievous little children. Very occasionally he turned his hand to important pieces, which are ingeniously composed, highly finished and especially natural. His name is synonymous with the highest excellence in animal and figure paintings.

He is singled out by Reynolds, who illustrated in the Museum, as being one of those "artists who painted modern life in the 1850's and attained a standard of achievement which ensures their continuing interest".

Hunt exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1862 and 1873. He also exhibited at the British Institution and Suffolk Street. Titles at the Royal Academy include Vocal and Instrumental, The Banquet Scene, Macbeth and Make Way for the Grand Jury.
