English painter

Charles Edward Hallé (1846–1914), sometimes given as Edward Charles Hallé, was an English Victorian painter and gallery manager. He was a painter of history scenes, genre scenes, and portraits.

Although born only two years before the founding the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, stylistically Hallé was aligned with the aesthetic of the so-called "second wave" of that group, and artists such as Edward Burne-Jones.

His younger sister was sculptor and inventor Elinor Hallé CBE.^[1] His first professors were Richard Doyle and Carlo Marochetti when he entered the School of the Royal Academy in London.
