Charles Reuben Ryley was a talented artist born in Devonshire Place and later resided in Wimpole Street, Marylebone, London in 1793. His artistic prowess is evident through his various creations, such as "Three Putti Dancing to a Piper" and "Woman at Her Toilet, " both dating back to March 1, 1780. These pieces showcase Ryley's ability to capture movement and beauty with intricate details. In addition to these works, Ryley also created "Humphreys and Mendoza" in 1790 (1925), which highlights his versatility as an artist. This piece portrays the famous boxers of that time period, demonstrating Ryley's skill in capturing the essence of historical events. Ryley's talent extended beyond just creating art; he also collaborated on projects like "The Wise Mens Offering" in 1788 with an unknown creator. This collaboration showcases his ability to work harmoniously with other artists while producing exceptional results. Throughout his career, Ryley captured various scenes from everyday life, including depictions of the Plain Dealer newspaper by William Angus in 1786. These artworks provide insight into the social fabric of that era. Moreover, Ryley's involvement with the Leverian Museum is notable; he designed a ticket for this renowned museum located at Albion Place, Southwark around c1805. Additionally, he depicted its interior view circa 1795 - showcasing not only his artistic skills but also providing glimpses into historical spaces that are now lost to time. Rounding out his portfolio is an interior view of St Martin Outwich Church located within the City of London from 1796 by Barrett and Old Bailey Sessions House artwork from Jefferies dated back to 1794. These pieces demonstrate Ryley's ability to capture architectural elements alongside human figures seamlessly.
