  • Charles Leslie (1839–1886) was an English landscape painter during the Victorian era, he was also a member of the Williams family of painters. Charles Leslie was born Charles Edward John Leslie on 27 November 1839 in the Bentonville Road area of the Arlington borough of London. He was the son of Emily Ann Williams and Charles Leslie, senior. His grandfather Edward Williams (1781–1855) was a known landscape painter, also the father of six sons, who where all artists, they are collectively referred to as the Williams family of painters. The younger Charles loved to paint & was taught by his uncles, especially George Augustus Williams, whom he lived with in 1856 and 1857 at 32 Castilian Villas in Barnes at a time when Leslie was already exhibiting showing his works at the Royal Academy.
  • Charles Leslie should not be confused with another painter Charles Robert Leslie, RA, who was the father of George Dunlop Leslie, RA. Charles Leslie was one of the first Victorian landscape artists to show scenes of Scottish & Welsh moorlands, and he became the better known painters of landscape themes. Charles Leslie landscapes often show stark mountains in the background towering over still waters with open skies above.
  • Leslie exhibited at the Royal Academy, the British Institution, the Suffolk Street Gallery of the Society of British Artists, & exhibited in other known Victorian art venues also. He died of liver disease at the age of 46 on 9 September 1886 at Mitch am Road Tooting near Wands worth, Surrey. British museums have examples of his work like the National Library of Wales, the Royal Holloway Museum at the University of London and the Victoria Museum and Gallery in Liverpool. One of his landscapes is also on view at the Museum Geelvinck Halogen Hui's in Amsterdam in the Netherlands.
