Charles Wheeler Locke was a painter, illustrator, etcher, lithographer, teacher, and drawing specialist. He is best known for his etchings and his urban genre, portraits, and bar scenes. Locke studied art in his native Cincinnati at the Mechanics Ohio Institute. In 1921, he became a student at the Art Students League in NYC, studying under Joseph Pennell. Pennell (the disciple and biographer of Whistler) was the leading force of American printmaking at this time. He recognized Locke’s talents (particularly in the medium of lithography) and hired him as his assistant. In 1923 Pennell selected Locke to succeed him as Instructor of Lithography at the Art Students League. From 1925, Charles Locke’s lithographs of the docks, wharves and streets of New York and Brooklyn gained international recognition.
