Charles Parsons was a British-born artist who emigrated to America, where he painted in oil and watercolor as well as working in lithography. After being apprenticed to George Endicott, Charles Parsons worked for Nathaniel Currier, later Currier & Ives. He became head of the art department of Harper’s publishing firm in 1863.
He was elected an Associate Member of the National Academy of Design and of the New York Water Color Society. Parsons is perhaps best known for his role in helping to create the classic look of Currier & Ives’ popular lithographs, along with the artists Louis Maurer, Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait, Fanny Palmer, Thomas Worth and George Henry Durrie (Bonfante-Warren).
