Felix Octavius Carr "F. O. C.“ Darley (1822-1888) was an American illustrator, mainly for literary works. He became famous for his illustrations for numerous American authors such as Charles Dickens, Washington Irving, Edgar Allen Poe or James Fenimore Copper. He also illustrated many works by Shakespeare or scenes from American history.
Darley was born in 1822 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Through his parents he had connections to the theater and acting but his interest lay first of all in art. He taught himself to draw. At the age of 14 he worked in the Philadelphia Dispatch Transportation Line and immortalized his work environment in his drawings. Some of his caricatures found their way into The Saturday Museum, whose editor was Edgar Allen Poe. He then drew for various publications, initially in Philadelphia. Later he moved to New York and his illustrations appeared in magazines like Harpers Weekly and in various books, such as Washington Irving's "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" or Darley's own work: "Scenes in Indian Life". He often worked together with the writer Irving, for example he provided illustrations for Irving's "The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent", "Rip Van Winkle" or "Wolfert's Roost". By 1850 his reputation had grown far beyond that of other illustrators in the United States. Yet he never thought himself too good for certain jobs. He often worked productively on many smaller projects besides a few large ones.
Through Darley's productivity, the clarity of his drawings and compositions, and his bold, energetic style, he set the standard for future generations of American artists and illustrators. Darley made drawings, lithographs, engravings, etchings, and paintings with watercolors. The latter often depict ordinary life in the United States. He has also become famous for his art-rich vignettes of American banknotes.
