Henry George Hine (1811–1895) was an English landscape-painter and comic illustrator. LifeBorn at Brighton, Sussex, on 15 August 1811, he was the youngest son of William Hine, from Hampshire, by his marriage with Mary Roffey. His father was at one time coachman to Hester Thrale, and then a coachmaster in Brighton. He taught himself to draw and paint, and was encouraged by a neighbouring vicar who had water-colours by Copley Fielding.[1] Hine painted for some years in Sussex on sea-pieces and coastal scenes, then went to London and was apprenticed as a draughtsman to Henry Meyer. On leaving Meyer he went to Rouen and remained there about two years. He returned, first to Brighton, then to London, where he became a professional wood engraver, and in 1841 extended his practice to drawing on the wood for illustrated journals.[1] Ebenezer Landells engaged Hine as a contributor to Punch, the first number of which had been published on 17 July 1841. Hine's first contribution appeared in September, and he continued to work for Punch till 1844. He and William Newman were the main regular artists on the staff, before John Leech took the lead. At the end of 1844 Hine withdrew from the staff of Punch and contributed to several short-lived rival publications (Puck, The Great Gun, Joe Miller the Younger, and The Man in the Moon) and the Illustrated London News. After a time he concentrated again on landscape painting.[1]In 1863 Hine was elected an associate of the Institute of Painters in Water-colours, and exhibited St. Paul's from Fleet Street. He was elected a full member in 1864, and exhibited in the following year two Dorset subjects. From that time onwards he was a regular contributor to the exhibitions at the Institute, of which he was the vice-president from 1888 to 1895.[1] After his marriage in 1840, Hine spent most of his life in London or the northern suburbs; he lived in Highgate from 1856 to 1868, and in Hampstead from 1868 for the rest of his life. Several of his water-colours were exhibited at the Institute in the year of his death, which took place at Rosslyn Hill, Hampstead, on 16 March 1895.[1] WorksHine's style was based on that of Copley Fielding. By 1830, from Brighton, he contributed to London exhibitions, sending six pictures to the Royal Academy and 12 to the Suffolk Street Gallery between then and 1851. In 1856 he had three water-colours at Suffolk Street, and in 1859 an oil painting, Smugglers waiting for a Lugger, attracted attention at the Academy.[1] Hine contributed small black comic sketches and cartoons to Punch. He also illustrated the first Punch's Almanac. A notable contribution was the sheet of Anti-Graham Wafers, an attack upon the home secretary, Sir James Robert Graham, who had private correspondence opened in 1844.[1] Hine's pictures included: Lewes from the Town Mill, On the Downs near Lewes, Swanage Bay, Cliffs at Cuckmere, In Cowdray Park, Haymaking, Corfe Castle, Moonlight, Shoreham, and Fittleworth Common. Some of these were sent in 1878 to the Paris Exhibition. [1]FamilyIn 1840 Hine married Mary Ann, daughter of John Egerton, a coach-master. They had a family of ten daughters and four sons. Two of his sons were Harry Hine, a member of the Institute of Painters in Water-colours, and William Egerton Hine, art master at Harrow School.[1] Notes1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {{cite DNBSupp|wstitle=Hine, Henry George|volume=2}}
