With the family he later moved to Cambridge, where he received his first taste of the artistic world under the tutelage of sculptor Henry Wiles.
However, Brock was not the only artist of that name who demonstrated his skills at that time. A certain Charles Edmond Brock from London, who painted portraits of noblemen and members of the royal family, was often confused with our protagonist. The confusion reached such an extent that they even paid each other's bills. To solve this calamity, they agreed that Charles Edmund would renounce "Edmund" and Charles Edmond would renounce "Charles". But the play of confusion did not end there. The name of the sculptor entrusted with the commission for a bust of Queen Victoria was actually Mr. Thomas Brock, RA, and not Mr. C. E, Brock.
But let us return to Charles Edmund Brock, the famous illustrator and painter. He received his first book commission at the tender age of 20 and soon became masterful at bringing the works of authors such as Jonathan Swift, William Thackeray, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens and George Eliot to life with his illustrations. He also contributed to several magazines, enriching them with his impressive drawings. The libraries of Cambridge served him as a source of inspiration and research for his "picture research".
His extraordinary ability to create realism and vividness in his works was universally praised. However, few of his paintings have survived, driving their prices to dizzying heights. His most famous and valuable works are undoubtedly his golf paintings - "The Bunker," "The Drive," and "The Putt" - all of which he painted in 1894. These paintings were purchased by a Japanese collector for a staggering $1.5 million. They now grace the walls of golf museums and captivate visitors from all over the world, especially "The Putt," which is even used as an art print for postcards and posters.
Brock and his brothers ran a studio in Cambridge where they kept their curios, antiques, furniture and costume collection. They had an impressive collection of costume prints and fashion plates from the Regency period, and even had clothing made as patterns for certain costumes. Even after his death in 1938, his artistic legacy remains unforgotten.
